Rt6 Barn in Lousia Co. , Va.

My current idea is to paint those structures that were in place during the earlier millennia for Virginians' to carry on within its walls. Its places like barns for agricultural purposes and housing livestock are those I have targeted to paint. Those barns and old homes have been weathered and many are nearing collapse. I am trying to record them before they are gone into the history of the land. This particular one was sitting by the side of the Rt 6 road. It was still in fairly good condition yet it did have some holds in it walls. Many of those old barns aren't being used anymore, and I honestly don't know why other than that they could fall apart on whatever is housed inside them. The wood in them is rather unique and colorful in an earthy way. I find that part of them appealing to paint.
