#0705 "Beside the Barn"

#0705 "Beside the Barn" 11x14 inches

I painted this looking from the shadow of the shed toward the north wall of the barn at Watershed Farm on the 12th Concession of King Township. Linda had wanted a painting of the yellow flowers and I was not in the mood for a close-up detail work. The wind was also blowing the flowers around and it would have been quite impossible to paint a detailed flower close-up without a photo. The late September light was soft. The dog and the cat were watching me from the shade of the shed. It was an idyllic afternoon. 

I had some fun working on the windows and the multiple panes of dirty glass. The cobwebs added character to the old barn which I lovingly maintained. There were a lot of memories in this barn.
