Abandoned Buildings

Abandoned buildings dot rural Texas, but if restored, they’d make great workspaces, and I’d gladly rent one.

Mercantile

A small wooden store has ornamentation at its facade. The building has a cornice along its roof and a crown in the middle. Why? Perhaps the metal facade elevates the building’s prestige by imitating stone.

Faithful

A faithful rendering is accurate to the scene and subject as viewed through the eye.

Simple Italianate

Simple Italianate houses fascinate me. The City of Cincinnati describes Italianates (1860 - 1890) as two or three stories high, rectangular in plan, with low-pitched roofs. They are brick with metal, stone, or wood ornamentation. A distinctive feature is a cornice. Their design is thin with tall windows, similar to 19th-century commercial buildings.
