Piece description from the artist
San Antonio is the seventh most populated city in the United States, and the second largest in Texas. It was named for Saint Anthony of Padua by the Spanish explorers who claimed & settled the area in the 17th Century, and is practically a museum of Spanish Colonial architecture and history. The Greater San Antonio Metropolitan Area is also home to Sea World, Six Flags Fiesta Texas, the Alamo, the Spanish Mission Trail, HemisFair Park and the Tower of the Americas, the Alamo Bowl, Lackland Air Force Base, and the NBA champions the San Antonio Spurs. It once served as the capital of the Spanish provence of Tejas and was the largest Spanish settlement in Texas.
Ashland grew up in Southeast Virginia surrounded by lush rural landscapes, great protected swamp lands, national & state parks, the Chesapeake Bay, the Eastern Shore, the breathtaking Skyline Drive & Blue Ridge Mountains, and the inlets & oceans of Virginia & North Carolina.
It was this constant variation in natural beauty that first drew his eye to the camera; that, and the constant joy of capturing life's candid moments on film. Although no particular subject is banned from the lens of Ashland's camera, it is landscapes, cityscapes, wildlife, and nature that truly captures his heart.
"There's always more to see, more to learn, more to be wowed about-I just hope you enjoy what I see in the world."
A constant staple on the likes of Instagram, Flickr, and Facebook, Ashland currently resides in Chicago, Illinois, and looks forward to many more years of development, collaboration, creativity, world travel, and art.
