Buildings Around the World, Arches by Joan Tavolott

For some strange reason I haven't been doing many buildings lately.
This was painted the other day at the Planting Fields Arboretum in Oyster Bay.
The arboretum is a former Gold Coast estate on 409 acres of land. The 65 room mansion, Coe Hall, had these wonderful arches along one side of the house.

    I love the way you did the bricks with just a suggestion of the lines. Your shadows are beautiful!
