Race director Beth Shluger reviewed the sketch with Andy and a few changes were necessary.
 
The Capitol Building was increased in size
to more accurately portray the scene, and the Governor's Footguard were added to the crowd of spectators.

The next step was to produce a detailed
base-drawing on a sheet of 300 lb cold
press watercolor paper.  

The final painting will be done at 125%
of the printed poster size.  A portion of
the base-drawing is shown here.

After the base-drawing was completed,
the watercolors were applied directly
over the drawing.

The pencil drawing was then erased.
