The beauty of Texas.

While most people perceive Texas as being a rough state, it does have a delicate side. On my trip home, I was really lucky to get to visit Gallagher ranch. An old family acquaintance's property, the ranch is a Texas jewel. I took this photos of the old spanish tiled sink inside one of the bathrooms. The hacienda dates back to before the Alamo! The color and patterns are so delicate and simple. Not to mention I love the brass faucet! I'm in the process of developing a logo for one of my classes of which I would like to channel the style of these tiles into!

This set of tiles was found in my friends backyard! I love how they aged! The shape in the center reminds me of an old honorary medal. 

I like the colors used in both sets of tiles a lot! The mint green, light blue, and navy are among some of my favorite colors.
