This year's Brick Fiesta was a bit underwhelming compared to the last two, and I didn't exactly help matters by hardly building all year. But had a good time hanging out with Steve.
Making bricks for houses from the red earth. Zebu powered cart passing by and being overtaken by an SUV, on the road from Antananarivo to Antsirabe, Madagascar. I can't pinpoint the exact location on the map and the satellite images don't get very close in this area.
Built of Toronto brick and Bedford limestone in the Romanesque style, St. Anselm Catholic Church was the first Catholic congregation established along this stretch of S. Michigan Avenue. At the time of its construction in 1924, the St. Anselm parish catered predominantly to Washington Park’s Irish community; demographic shifts in the neighborhood led to the church becoming a thriving Black parish by the mid-1930s. The church at S. Michigan Avenue and E. 61st Street contains several architectural ornaments, including original chandeliers, Stations of the Cross, alters decorated with inlaid shamrocks and stained glass created by F.X. Zettler of Munich, Germany. Its school closed in 1994 and now houses a CPS charter school. Sadly, the church closed in June 2021 as part of the Archdiocese's parish consolidation program. The Archdiocese consolidated five predominantly Black Bronzeville parishes — Corpus Christi, St. Ambrose, St. Anselm, St. Elizabeth and Holy Angels — closing the first four churches and forming Our Lady of Africa parish in the former Holy Angels church, at 607 E. Oakwood Blvd.
Photograph at Chicago Architecture Center Open House Chicago 2021.
Gave up on the Mural version, decided to try things in 3-d instead. The result is much nicer.
Next step: A light kit (it's built to light up) and more 2x2 trans-clear rounds to extend the white light side of things.
This photograph marks the beginnings of the "numbers game". A little project I have to see how high I can get . All photos must be taken and posted in order.
Might be fun.
Built new garden beds, paths, compost bin out of materials recycled from our old rotting deck and bricks from around the yard.
Espero que no haya sido asÃ, asà desde el comienzo, y espero que no lamentes el haberme conocido. Espero que no haya dolor dentro de tu corazón, porque el mÃo se cae en pedazos ..
.. when I'm far away from you .
Location- Nottingham- City Centre
This photography is of a brick wall that shows the use of graffiti work. I particularly like how the graffiti changes the image of the bricks into 3-D and makes them brighter. The texture is rough and lit up by natural light. The location is set in the city centre where lots of the population live therefore brick walls are more likely to have signs of graffiti on them so it will change the walls appearance.

"Beautiful Freak"
You're such a beautiful freak
I wish there were more just like you
You're not like all of the others
And that is why i love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak
That is why i love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak
Some people think you have a problem
But that problem lies only with them
Just 'cause you are not like the others
But that is why i love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak
Yeah that is why i love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak
Too good for this world
But i hope you will stay
And i'll be here to see
That you don't fade away
You're such a beautiful freak
I bet you are flying inside
Dart down and then go for cover
And know that i
I love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak
You know that i
I love you
Beautiful freak, beautiful freak ~Eels
