All are welcome!

Here are my two entries:


Santa Fe Cása, is a wonderful example of early New Mexico architecture. As the artist, the structure can be taken back in time by removing all of modern technology from the roof yet saving the character of the aged wooden gates and landscape. Enjoy this watercolor; imagine the many stories this Santa Fe Cása has seen and can tell to those who pay attention.

 As part of my quest to capture the vanishing landscape, during one of my back road trips through Texas, I stumbled on this old fence post and barn structure. The focus of this composition was the fence post and the way it appeared in front of the barn which creates a since of distance. I enjoyed the old barn and foreground flowers back lit by the sun.
