Barn Tour Under Overcast Skies

Our last art guild meeting took us on a barn tour. We’ve done this once before and it was a blast. We had the same blustery weather as the last one so it made for some soft lighting and an interesting sky. A lot of the barns in our area were built in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. Here are just a few shots from that day.

The Shepard Barn

Wood-vine and plain old nature is taking over this little homestead near the Douglas Barn.

The Artery Barn

I just love the way the texture of barn wood photographs. And the old rusty horseshoes and metal fence make a nice subject as well.

Until next time…

Barn Tour

Over the weekend our local art guild, in which I am a member of, went on a barn tour through our small town. We visited barns built in the 1930’s or earlier. It was such a cold and windy day but we powered through and really enjoyed it. I can’t wait to see the paintings that the artists will create from their snapshots. Below are a few of my favorites and you can see the whole tour and descriptions of the barns on my website by clicking HERE.

Remember the big brown eye on the last post? Well, this is his big nose sniffing through!

a sweet kitty cat visited us at the Baker Barn that was built in the early 1930’s.

the color in the wood of the Birkle Barn built in the early 1930’s was a favorite among all the artists
