Beautifully expressed rendition of the Shrine of the Bab. The frame and matting showcase the print. We have it prominently on our living room wall with other sacred pictures.

I think the frame and mat work very well with this, it is really impressive in person. Grouped with a small Grant Wood with high quality lighting it sets the mood for a Georgia farmhouse.
Artist's Description
Built in the 1200s and located atop a 365 foot high mesa, Acoma Pueblo is one of the most spectacular of the nineteen modern pueblos of New Mexico. It looks like what it is, the home of the descendants of the Anasazi peoples of Mesa Verde and Chaco Canyon. The San Estevan Del Rey Mission Church, I've painted there, is a late comer to the pueblo, built between 1629 and 1641. The church was built by the Acoma Indians by order of the Spanish government. Although it was built with slave labor, the Acoma people are proud of it, and did not destroy it during 1680 revolt against the Spanish. It is still a place of Christian worship today.
The building is made of sandstone and adobe, rather than adobe bricks. The result is sturdier than adobe, but when in need of plaster very rough looking. The stones were very much visible when we visited this last summer, though I've seen pictures of the Mission looking as smooth as any brick adobe building. I like the rough stones and I'...
About Jenny Armitage
Jenny Armitage lives, paints, and draws in Salem Oregon. She's currently riding two horses: impressionist watercolor and surreal ink. Jenny's watercolors are about light and shadow patterns. She's most interested in forest and cityscapes, where the light bounces around creating interesting light patterns. These paintings begin with a pattern of light seen in the real world. Her ink drawings are illustrative of ideas. She has a thought and seeks to translate it to paper. Unlike her watercolors, the image begins with thought, not sight.

Jenny, I love these New Mexico pueblo churches and especially this one, as it is the only original. Your interpretation is gorgeous. I didn't take time to go through your catalog-is pouring your primary method? Keep up the good work! Dave
Jenny Armitage replied:
David, I pour about half my paintings. I find it helps me simplify. Not that pueblo churches need simplification. Simplicity is their greatest virtue.
Kathy Stiber
Fantastic watercolor! Very well done.
