This is from a photo I took when we lived in Ohio. I have a lot of photos from the 18 years that we lived there, mostly in the beautiful autumns. It is so cold and snowy here that I thought I would do a sunny landscape with lots of colors. This is an 8×10 on red sanded matboard with soft pastels.
Below is my reference photo. I believe I took it while walking on Murray road, so it must have been just across the road from our house. Or not far.
We have neglected the truth that a good farmer is a craftsman of the highest order, a kind of artist. – Wendell Berry
