Chapel of the Holy Cross | Sedona, AZ

March 28, 2020 by E. Casa de Calvo

The cross sits at the top of a hill, and is built within the red rock cliffs. The hill top offers a spectacular view! I was warned that the cactus (seen in this set) spits needles at you if you get too close. Another tidbit: the architect who designed the chapel was also a student of Frank Lloyd Wright. A beautiful place of reflection.

Museum of Modern Art | New York, NY

December 30, 2018 by E. Casa de Calvo

These photos were taken in 2015. I was thrilled to see the museum, but I was far more excited to see the Bjork exhibit on display that summer. Sadly, photos were not allowed for most of her exhibit, but I did manage to get one set. Elvis Costello, another all time favorite, also made the cut. Good times!

San Xavier Mission | Tuscon, AZ

September 22, 2018 by E. Casa de Calvo

San Xavier is a Spanish Colonial Catholic mission founded by Father Eusebio Kino in 1692. It is the oldest intact European structure in Arizona. The interior is filled with beautiful paintings, murals, and statues. The architectural design throughout is breathtaking!

National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden | Washington, DC

April 30, 2018 by E. Casa de Calvo

My favorite sculpture has to be the “Entrance to the Paris Metro” by Hector Guimard. The Typewriter Eraser is also pretty cool.
