Formosa, now known as the Elisabet Ney Museum, is the former home and studio of German-born sculptor Elisabet Ney. The studio was built in 1892. It is located in Hyde Park and was the first art studio built in Texas. It is a local and state historical landmark and houses a permanent collection of Ney's work.
This blog is this Austinite's daily view - literally. In the more than 25 years I've lived in this great city, I've seen a lot of changes. Some things I took for granted are gone now. So, I decided to spend a year documenting images of things I see in my world right now - my Austin. Some photos are things tourists would see; some are things only my neighbors would see. Oh, and I don't claim to be a professional photographer - just a gal with a camera.
