On my return trip to this barn, I painted the rear side, which looks like the front to me. The dark red affords a nice contrast to all the green foliage, and as always, old barns provide a special pleasure. This one has all the good traits. Although I see a lot of problems with this study, details I need to correct, I plan to paint a larger one of this perspective. I’m just country enough to appreciate a barn.
Plein air artist Tom Hichols remarked, “When you’re working outside, you see all the best of life all the time.” In the case of old barns, Tom had a definite point.
