Like a lot of industrial sites in Detroit, this building sat neglected and abandoned for years and years. I'm not sure if the Ford Motor Company owned it, but it's been beautifully restored. It's one of the first factories Henry Ford built, before he came up with the idea of the assembly line. I believe Model A's were built here. If you're ever in the area, the tours of this beautiful factory are well worth your time. The docents are quite knowledgable. Our was a former Ford engineer who was also a car collector. In fact, a couple of his vehicles were on display. And the building is now being used for weddings and other festive occasions
My love of the arts began early on in life and was greatly influenced by an inspiring photography teacher in high school. I began teaching myself to paint in 2019 and have had my work exhibited in numerous shows in the Detroit area. One of the joys of being an artist is looking at the world in totally different ways and discovering a painting or photograph in a million unexpected places. For inquiries: dominmark@yahoo.com
