The streetscapes are very appealing--I'm interested in the same subject matter. Like your choices of places, buildings, houses, architecture.

Congratulations on the interview Tom. I like your responses! You'd LOVE the architecture where I'm at in New Bedford, Massachusetts. Victorian houses everywhere and lots and lots of beautiful architecture!

TomOliverArt In reply to kreativekitty3 [2012-08-22 05:40:25 +0000 UTC]

Oh definitely. I love the architecture of New England. It is amazing how much more work they used to put into older buildings. I wish I could live two places at once so I could have that inspirational environment too, ha!

kreativekitty3 In reply to TomOliverArt [2012-08-23 16:22:24 +0000 UTC]

I will keep you in mind Tom when I am around town and take some pictures for you to see and maybe paint if you wish.
