Description
Milwaukee's old North Point Water Tower is this years choice for my annual holiday painting. I can remember riding past the tower as a youngster. I always thought it looked like a storybook castle...I still do. In the 60's it was often used for war protests and other rallies. The eastside location and proximity to the University of Wisconsin contributed to the popularity of the site for gatherings. This historic Milwaukee landmark was built in 1874.

Hi Tom, Absolutely WONDERFUL! If and when I get to Milwaukee, I do want to see this piece of history. I agree it looks like a miniature castle. I have a brother in Fon du Lac and I am from Chicago where we also have a water tower. I LOVE your style of art and color choices.. have looked around at abstracts and fantasy and think it is great the range of "vision" you have!! Sandy S

had to stop and look when I saw your sale; this is an amazing architectural structure; the fact that it is a water tower must have a story all its own; Congratulations on your Sale...beautiful artwork
