P.S. - Dixon has an arch that spans the street in front of this courthouse shown . . . pretty obvious that I had to use that in the design. Also required some symmetry due to the shape and the way I used it . . .

We're titling all these with the town names they go in - and there's only so many ways to show a town name!!

Creativity is allowing ones self to make mistakes. Talent is knowing which ones to keep.
