Barry Gott's Cleveland watercolor paper illustrations are an adorable and creative way to promote the city. Gott uses archival dye ink from digital whiteboard backing to create his friendly city building structures. He is a children's book, greeting card and print artist by trade, but the majority of his available work on Etsy is based off of buildings and places in and around Cleveland, which is his home town.
The Barry Gott Cleveland collection's most popular and profitable prints are of the Cleveland Neighbourhoods, the Cleveland Skyline, the Empire State building and one titled Chicagoland which features all of the most popular buildings in Chicago. These prints are great for any enthusiastic Clevelanders and any lovers of the great city. It's not often that you see buildings enjoying a coffee break, so feast your eyes on this animated city architecture.
