Red Barn

I seem to have a thing about red barns, but maybe that's because so many of them here are red. This was on the grounds of the Smithton Historical Society. 

Red Barn and Silos

On Saturday my sister and I drove up to Middletown, NY to pick up paintings we had in the North East Watercolor Society's Member's Show. Afterwards we took a ride into Goshen to look for and sketch some barns in the area. We tend to sketch the same barns each time because they are the only ones we find that we can park near. lol I have painted this several times before but I decided to do it much closer this time. It was cold and damp so we sketched from my portable studio. This is about 5 x 7.

Here is the sketch with the scene I was painting. As you can see the barns were quite a distance away.
