This is a small German Catholic town in North Texas. Don't let your eyes deceive you. The only actual brick is the chocolate brick under the arches. The rest is flat painted wall. No tile or bricks other than what I mantioned. I guess I just never realized that all this stuff is painted on like the famous ones in Europe. Enjoy!

Whoever did the painting did an amazing job!
If there were a way to take out the power lines and stop sign in the second one that would not distract from the church. They are beautiful pictures though.
The Priest told me they restored some of the paint back in the late 80's. I have heard since that they brought people in from Europe to do the work. This has to be my fav of the group I had done. I have to admit that all the different designs give you a bit of sensory overload. However, it doesn't take away from the amazing work!
Too bad they had to bring people from Europe.....But they did an amazing Job of restoring the art work.
