This painting was from a photo that I had taken a few years ago. I think I used a zoom lens from my front yard. I love that barn! LOL! I have so many photos of that barn. I have several paintings, also. But, this picture was more about the light and shadows.
This is oils on a 9×12 piece of loose canvas. Below I have shared the reference photo that I took. I rarely like to show the reference, because it is so easy to pick the painting apart. But, in this case, I like that it doesn’t look too much like the reference. I like my interpretation. I like the looseness and the intensity of the colors. I may do it again, someday, but I am enjoying this one now.
