About the art: This print is from an acrylic painting on stretched canvas. It
was inspired by the YMCA building in downtown Shreveport, Louisiana. I was
struck by the black lamps, the white, smooth stones, and the columns. Of
course, it is hand painted. Main colors are white, black, and green. There is
some blue also.
...........................
Shreveport boasts many beautiful old buildings--homes, places of business, and
empty buildings that were once glorious and lively.

The city was founded in 1836 By the Shreve Town Company, named for Captain
Henry Miller Shreve. He was responsible for the clearing of the intriguing Red
River raft, a polite name for a 180-mile long pile of debris that had clogged
the Red River for longer than anyone knew. It was said that in some places, the
raft was so thick that a man could ride his horse across the river, and not so
much as the hoofs would get wet.

Explore rough, rocky landscapes and old, crumbling buildings, made of rocks, stone, stucco, and wood. There are paintings of Louisiana and the southwest states of Texas, Colorado, Utah, and New Mexico. You'll also find fanciful works of imagination. These are the paintings of Lenora De Lude. "When I look at the beauty and majesty of creation, I know I can never duplicate the work of the ultimate Master, God Himself. But He has put a creative spark into me, and so I create. Come and see my creations. Pick up a few prints and cards. More will be added soon, and then more after that."
