These Old Barns

Image
In the olden days barns were the workspot for our farmers. They were the source of income and protection for farmers livestock and crops. The barns were also the source of pride since it was the family who built them were the very same who used them. The barn was one that stood in the middle of progressive construction. New homes and townhouses are built all around it. This barn is located right on the outside of C'ville. It was once surrounded by the landscape of rolling hills and forest, now removed; this barn stands ready to fall. It will soon do so, but before it does I like to photograph it and create a canvas to its existence . These barns just don't get enough notice for the importance they were to the American construction of our national fabric. And so I paint them.
