Description
Honored that "Red Roof Barn In Autumn" tied for first place (or came in 2nd? or came in 3rd?) out of 539 images in the 10/2/2024 contest "Autumn Sketches" held by the Intent Of The Artist group. Many thanks to contest administrator, Marine B Rosemary, and everyone who voted for my image. Congratulations to the other winners!
That "lost and alone" thing that John Denver sings about in one of my favorite songs, is my favorite way to spend the day. In this case, it wasn't "some forgotten highway," as in his wonderful "Sweet Surrender" (which is playing right now) but a lovely windy country road in beautiful Loudon County, Virginia. The scene before me captured my heart so entirely, that I've already created and added two other versions to my gallery here. One is a summer scene (Red Roof Barn), and one "vintage" (Vintage Red Roof Barn ... pastel-y and springy). All are of Paris Barns at Liberty Farm in Paris Virginia.
But since today, 9/22/18, is the first day of astronomical autumn, the autumnal equinox, I thought it would be appropriate to finally bring this one out of the deep dark depths of my computer, dust it off, and let it see the light of day.
There are two more versions to go ... one the beginnings of winter as the snow just begins to fall, and one in a spring shower. When I like something, I tend to like it a lot!!
Hope you enjoy as well.
Loosely based on and hand-painted digitally from one of my own photos.

Fine art purchases of this image will not include a watermark, and if I may make a recommendation ... this image will look its very best on the fine art paper choice of "picture rag."
