The Grubb Mansion, Lancaster
<- Click here
Almost next to my home sits the Lancaster Museum of Art inside of the restored 18th century Grubb Mansion. Behind the museums Musser Park occupies a city block. The park’s bordered on all sides by largely single family homes which also pre-date the Civil War by fifty to a hundred years. The Museum’s recently announced the appointment of a new Executive Director. My wife and I will hold a reception next month to introduce her to the Musser Park and Historic District neighbors.
We need an illustration for the front of the invitation…. Here it is. I’m anxious to capture the dignity of the old building, and its haunting personality. Moreover, it seemed correct to present it at dawn… together with the mood of a new day for the director and this grand old lady of urban art.

Hi Ted - I'm enjoying your blog. I like that you're non-apologetic about enhancements to your work. I use quite a bit myself, Topaz, Perfect Effects and such. It helps to bring out the right mood in an image, which is very difficult to replicate in a two-dimensional photograph. Thanks!
