Anti Valentine Note Card - Lust

humorous anti Valentine's Day pair of TWO note cards done in gothic black and white of Lust's gravestoneValentine's Day is nearing. For some it is a day to contemplate past relationships. Hopefully those trysts have turned into friendships. Lighten the moment and send that "special" friend a little poke of fun. You know who it is. Go on. You will laugh together at your misstep and put some humor in the day. After all, as Charlie Chaplin said, "A day without laughter is a day wasted."

Gothic Revival Church Architecture

The tower of a stone Gothic church reaches toward a stormy sky with green capped spires.First I want to thank all of you that have stuck by me during my internet equipment failure. I apologize for not being able to communicate or post new work and have missed you! I am excited to be able to share my work with you once again.

These photographs were taken in Georgetown, Colorado. This little church is a perfect example of Gothic Revival architecture. The influences are apparent in the pointed arches, steep gables, and spired tower. The Gothic Revival period spanned the 19th and 20th centuries and was primarily used in the design of churches and universities. It was a romantic period of Victorian architecture and was found not only in Europe but the United States, Australia, New Zealand and Bulgaria.
