There is no denying this is a yellow barn! Well, there’s no denying it’s yellow anyway. Even though I made some thumbnail sketches beforehand, the barn changed quite a bit during the painting process. I am back to my one true love (in painting), which is painting barns.
With this painting I am moving towards the abstract with my barns. I still want to be able to recognize that there is a barn in the painting, as opposed to a totally abstract painting. It is important to me to have the painting be about some “thing”, though this painting is more about color (mostly yellow) than it is about a barn. It started out being about a barn, but as I painted it, the painting became more and more about color. Hmm, something to think about. (Like I don’t have enough on my mind!). This painting is 36″x36″.
