Barn Raising - Final Draft


Finished! I have added a few more details - the darker shadows on the silo, the windows and around the base of the barn.  There are some tree trunks to the right and some shadows in the foreground.  I have taken off the masking tape from the perimeter and as I mentioned in one of my first posts, the white edge allows me to observe the painting without the distraction of messy edges.
I will be framing 'my barn' with double white acid free mats and a dark wood frame.

I hope you have enjoyed following my painting process.  I am getting prepared for 'Welcome Back to Otterville'  Studio Tour  November 21 & 22  10am - 5pm  There will be many new works including the barn.
