Barn 123 RAIN RAIN GO AWAY



Barn 123 RAIN RAIN GO AWAY 22x30 watercolor, pencil, oil pastel

The motivation for this barn painting was a gift of a ceramic rooster found at a garage sale by a friend. I guess any excuse for putting paint in paper is better than cleaning house! I have had this painting almost finished for a few weeks. Then I added the kids playing the hay loft -waiting the the rain to go away. Van Gogh’s ‘Wheat Field with Cypress’ had some influence on those clouds-but I am sure he would be horrified at the implication. I finally decided that I like it.
