Image Size: 6 x 4 inches

Alamo: Columns, Niche, Door
Image Size: 9 x 6 inches
Print History: Edition of 200. There are so many images of the Alamo that it's hard to get a fresh "take" on this Texas icon. With this closeup of a few of the building details, I hope I have rendered an image that is bit off the beaten path.

San Jose: Rose Window
(Engraving)
Image Size: 6 x 4 inches

Image Size: 2 x 3 inches
Print History: Edition of 50. The Alamo is the iconic Shrine of Texas Liberty, the site of an 1836 battle to free Texas from Mexico. The old mission is only a few miles from where I live. I could have heard Travis's cannon firing from my house.

San Jose (Engraving)
Image Size: 3 x 2 inches

Davy Crockett (Engraving)
Image Size: 6 x 4 inches

Image Size: 6 x 4 inches
Print History: Edition of 50. William Barret Travis was one of the Big Three at the Alamo, the other two being Bowie and Crockett. Travis was also the youngest of the three by far, being only 26.
