Tompsett approaches the Montreal skyline by balancing structural recognition with the unpredictable nature of his medium. The composition relies on the distinct profiles of iconic urban buildings, rendered through a diverse color fusion that allows one form to melt into the next. This technique emphasizes the inherent urban complexity and rhythm of the city, turning a familiar map into an exploration of saturation and light.

The use of smooth color blending creates a sense of dynamic movement across the landscape orientation, mimicking the way a city appears to shift when viewed from afar. By leaning into abstract expressionist art influences, the work focuses on the collective spirit of the skyline rather than individual windows or streets. It is a study of how architectural diversity can be unified through a singular, expressive wash of color.
