The Flatirons consist of sandstone, sandstone conglomerate or arkose, of the Fountain Formation. Geologists estimate the age of these rocks as 290 to 296 million years; they were lifted and tilted into their present orientation between 35 and 80 million years ago. The Flatirons were subsequently exposed by water and wind erosion over the eons.
Inside and outside of my creative life, I always find those valuable moments of time to draw and sketch the some of events, spaces and environments on my journeys... Sometimes I think about Robert Byron touring through regions of the Middle East in search of unique towers and monuments, and wonder about Bruce Chatwin venturing through the southern tip of South America and falling in love with Patagonia...Douglas Wittnebel...

Merchandise Mart Chicago
The Merchandise Mart (or the Merch Mart, or the Mart) is a commercial building located in Chicago along the river. When it was opened in 1930, it was the largest building in the whole world with 4 million square feet (372,000 m2) of floor space. The structure is located at the junction of the Chicago River branches. The building is a leading retail and wholesale location. Neocon is the event that I have focused on for my later interior design and architectural career.
