San Pedro Chapel in Tucson, Arizona is a mission style chapel built in 1932. Pictures at dusk, with moody skies and a lamp over the door.
I setup a shot of San Pedro Chapel in Tucson on a stormy evening just before sunset. As I framed the shot, a dove flew in and landed on top of the bell tower. A sign?

My 365th post circles back to my original topic - my latest painting: "San Antonio, TX: Mission San Jose Y San Maguel de Aguayo Mission" (Acrylic on 16" x 20" x 1.5" cribbed wood panel). #art #acrylic #painting #sanantonio #architecture #spanishmission #sanantoniomissionsnationalpark
San José y San Miguel de Aguayo, (founded 1720 and designed to convert and integrate Native Americans into Spanish society) is the largest colonial mission in San Antonio, TX. A bilingual Mariachi Mass is held here every Sunday. #travel #tourism #sanantonio #texas #spanishmission #sanjosemission

This painting is split between a foreground, middle space, and background. The foreground illustrates a rustic cemetery with brush and cacti, a broken fence, and tombstones. multiple native birds occupy this area. The focus in the middle area (and the overall painting) is the church - a small, adobe structure with a raised belltower. Beyond, a mountainous rise under a blue sky fills out the frame.
Behind a wall in the tiny crossroads of New Mexico, stands this 1830's Catholic mission church, San Francisco de Asis. My painting nods at the patron saint with a collection of local brids within the foreground cemetery. (Acrylic, 11"x14"x1.5" on wood panel) #stfrancis #art #fineart #spanishmission
