Low Memorial Library

This is the famous Low Memorial Library at Columbia University. It was designed in a classical revival (Roman) style by Charles McKim of the famed firm of McKim, Mead and White. The library was started in 1894 and was completed a few years later. In the front it has a beautiful Bonze sculpture of Alma Mater by Daniel Chester French.

Boat in Mexico

I managed to paint a little while on vacation in Cancun. I was away with my whole family so finding time to stray away was difficult because of my nieves and nephews, but in the end I did a few paintings.

This is a nice scene I bumped into walking around the beach.
