The Old Farmstead

"The Old Farmstead"  11" x 14"  Available

Okay, I know I haven't been keeping up with my daily posts.  Oh well....  I've been busy participating in a Plein Air contest in New Berlin, Wis.  I painted for 2 days there, at this beautiful farm.  The owners have lived here all their lives; and they are now 86.
They were so nice and welcoming, once they realized that we didn't want to actually paint their barns, but rather wanted to paint a picture of their farm.  I even got to sample the cucumber and onion dish the farmer's wife was making.  It was great!  I really liked the variety of shapes of buildings, and enjoyed painting this view.  It was perfect weather to paint!
