Red Barn No. 1 - WIP

Red Barn No. 1 - WIP 8x24 Oil on Masonite

Another WIP (work in progress)! This was suggested by a photo my wife took on a recent auto trip from our house to Mountain Home, Arkansas.

This needs some drying time and I need to look at it a while then "clean it up", add some details and blah blah blah. One thing I'm going to try is adding some cattle near the barn. My cattle usually look like anything but cattle. I also need to put a stock pen to the right of the barn. I don't really NEED to, but the real barn had one and it added some interest. The little shed to the right needs to be straightened or propped up - it looks like it's falling down. Maybe it is?

My camera was sorry it acted up last time and will begin behaving. We'll see.

Simon - our 68 pound 3 year old Boxer. A little goofy, but I guess he's a true Boxer. Wants to be a lap dog when he grows up.

Casey - our 88 pound 4 year old boxer. He has a problem with his back left knee hurting him. The knee slows him down sometimes but is still a cuddle-puppy at heart.
