Description

Asheville is one of those unexpected treasures you discover. I had heard about Biltmore Estate of course and wanted to visit that gracious old estate. As I was heading to Virginia I decided that a couple of nights in Asheville wasn’t entirely out of the way. On my first evening in North Carolina, as I stood in the center of the city staring up the Jackson Building, I was sorry I didn’t have more time to enjoy Asheville and its beautiful old architecture.

I knew little about the history of Asheville, but landmark buildings tend to be pretty apparent even to a visitor. The Jackson Building reaching skyward caught my attention right away. And apparently it’s had that effect on visitors to the city every since its construction in the 1920’s. Originally there was a searchlight at the top which acted as a literal beacon to draw people to downtown Asheville.

My favorite aspect of the Jackson building though has to be the architecture. I love the combination of Gothic Revival architecture and a towering skyscraper. It seems like the ultimate extension of a towering Gothic cathedral reaching for the heavens. And on this particular day those heavenly clouds seemed close at hand.

I can’t help looking at this Asheville print and wanting to go back again. My short visit whetted my appetite to roam those beautiful streets some more. But I do I wonder if I would find myself wanting to stay in those North Carolina mountains like other artists seem to do?

Have you also visited Asheville or perhaps you call this beautiful place home? Or the towering Gothic building in this print also has you in its spell? I’d love to hear what drew you in when you saw this Asheville print!

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
