King And Queen Towers – Atlanta Canvas Print by Mark Tisdale

This unique King And Queen Towers canvas print shows one of metro Atlanta’s most recognizable pieces of architecture. The Sandy Springs skyscrapers are actually named Concourse V and VI but everyone in Atlanta seems to know them as The King and Queen Towers. And yes, they were indeed designed to be reminiscent of the King and the Queen pieces in a chess set. This is a photograph that I’m particular proud of because it wasn’t the result of a chance encounter. I spent some months trying to find the perfect angle for these buildings and even then it took yet more time to get the right skies!

At the time I lived and worked in Alpharetta but frequently ventured south on Georgia 400 on the weekends. And I always had my camera just in case. On this particular afternoon, I saw the clouds in the late afternoon sky and I had a feeling that day might finally be the day. I camped out in the area waiting for the golden hour of light as the sun hits the horizon. And, I hope you’ll agree that it was well worth the wait. The late afternoon sun and those clouds came together to form the perfect dramatic backdrop for such a stunning pair of landmark Atlanta skyscrapers.

Even if this King and Queen Towers canvas print had not turned out to be a popular one, I would have been proud of it just for the time it took me to get everything right. The fact it’s also been a popular Atlanta canvas print is simply the icing on the proverbial cake.

I hope you’ll pause to share your thoughts. What attracted you to this particular canvas print? Have you lived or worked in the area? Maybe like me you drove past them for years and they give you a sense of place? If you have thoughts or questions about this or any of my work don’t hesitate to drop me a note.

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
