Description
As you walk down Harper's Ferry West Virginia's Shenandoah Street on a golden autumn afternoon, your eyes fall on the John Brown Museum. Suddenly even though you're bathed in warm sunlight, you feel a chill ... and you half expect to see old John Brown himself come storming around the corner. His museum, just to your left, is a seemingly every-day looking structure ... but the history ... as well as the lingering emotions ... are dramatic.
If interested, I blogged about this image here:

It has a bit more info and some interesting links.
Original photographic image taken with the Nikon D300 and the 18-200mm vr Nikkor lens on a September afternoon in 2010. Treated to much work in Photoshop removing tourists and other architectural distractions, I then added the image to Corel Painter's 2015 for a complete digital hand-painting with the Wacom tablet and pen. My sincere thanks to Karen Burns of http://paintedworksbykb.com for all the fantastic tips and guidance on the impressionistic / impasto - y play I had with this one, as well as the hint of beautiful texture used.
