Awaiting The Thaw

                                                  An original watercolor painting
                                                  18 X 24", unframed - (mat size 24 X 30")
                                                  $400.00  (plus $35.00 pack & ship)
                                                                                           
    This barn painting was an attempt to capture the feeling of a winter day, when
the very air was so crisp and clean that it sparkled.

    Way back in my college days, there was still some agricultural land west of campus,
which developers hadn't destroyed yet, including this sagging relic, built back in the era
of horse-drawn implements.  A wise farmer had built the barn into the side of a hill, so that
he could hawl his wagons into the lower level from one side, or into the middle level from
the opposite side
                                                           (click on image to enlarge).


        I wish the old barn still remained there today, and still the same as before.
