This is one of my larger pieces and one of my favorite churches to paint. My rendition of  St. Ann's Parish in Tubac, Arizona. The present church was built in 1929. It stands on the foundations of the earlier Church of Santa Gertrudis de Tubac, c.1767, which was built after an earlier church had been destroyed by Pima Indians. The Tubac Presidio was built in 1751, after Tubac was destroyed during an Indian rebellion in which most of the inhabitants killed. The area today is a thriving artist community located in Southern Arizona about 20 miles north of Nogales and 40 miles south of Tucson.
