Southern Charmers

I'm a big fan of architecture and even though my taste is modern and minimalist I find a lot of charm in residential Southern houses. The one thing I try to avoid is the "picture of a house" syndrome. As I was taught, I try to concentrate on the light and the contrast that is so typical on the porches of these Victorian homes. The vertical is a house just across the street the other is is a small Victorian farm house that I've admired for years as I drive up to Helen. It's on Hwy 115 half way between 400 and Cleveland. It's been abandoned lately so I stopped to get this little reminder before it falls into disrepair. this makes 20 9x12s done— 80 more to go.
