Original artwork description:

Though weathered and worn, traces of “old glory” painted on the side of this typical Pennsylvania barn were still visible.

Rural landscapes and natural areas are becoming increasingly scarce in the much of the country. Neglected farm buildings decay and can be lost to age, fire, and demolition. Once gone, their unique materials and construction cannot be replaced. I enjoy painting their different architectural styles, those well preserved and those weathered and worn, as a tribute to our farming heritage.

The surface of this painting was built up in multiple layers of oil paint on a panel, using a palette knife and brushes in an impressionistic style with impasto texture.

If you are interested in purchasing this painting with a frame, I have one available that suits the piece and you may want to consider.
