Description
As a child I used to have "dark dreams' where I would run from room to room, but never seem to be able to reach the door. This space, with its dark red walls, heavy velvet and brocade curtains and carved wooden columns, reminded me of those dreams.

Art provides an opportunity for kaleidoscopic thinking. Each time we shift the lens of our perceptions, we gain new perspectives — and new opportunities for innovation. CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR RECENT SALE OF AN AMAZING WORK!

Mary, this is the perfect illustration of your childhood dream, and there are others who could relate to this as well. What a mysterious and intriguing setting! You transport your viewers to Dracula's castle, the haunt of Phantom of the Opera and many other fantasies. Nicely captured and composed! Voted and my selection for discussion in Wisconsin Flowers & Scenery. voted

Thank you so much, Cheri, for your comments and support. When I was in the building, I didn't have the same feeling as when I saw the photo.
