Description
(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved) Not that long ago, in our American history homes did not have running water. Before cities could install underground water pipes, people had to carry water into their homes from a nearby stream or other source. That also meant they could not enjoy the use of flush toilets which were later perfected by a plumber in England named Thomas Crapper. ( a funny fact for sure ). So until then, people built small houses outside their homes, for those times when nature called. I discovered this one at a small museum in Key West, Florida and decided to remain ... Outside The Outhouse.
I created this image from my original photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures and painterly-style effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green magnifier square as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!
