Presbyterian Gothic Revival Church in Georgetown, Colorado

Gothic Revival Architecture began in England in the 1740s and was present in the United States by the 19th century. Although Gothic revival buildings are not as popular since the 1930s they are still being built. This Presbyterian church was built in 1874 in Georgetown, Colorado. Georgetown started as a mining camp in 1859 and is now more famous for it's historic railroad, the Georgetown Loop.

Special thanks to Deanna for being my muse with this fine art photography Gothic Church Set. She made a special request that had me searching my archives to put this set together. Thanks Deanna!

Anti Valentine Note Card - Lust

Valentine'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."

A blank humorous "anti" Valentine's Day note card done in gothic black and white of Lust's gravestone.

Gothic Revival Church Architecture

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.
