Leaning Barn
8x8 watercolor on 140 lb cold press paper done over this past weekend. Ref courtesy another artist in Canada who hosted this month's challenge. These old barn structures are left abandoned in our country as well, a testament to earlier and simpler times. Note the rusty old car parked forever in its front yard and old metal barrels in foreground.
