And just why DO they paint barns red? Well, I have the answer!!
From the Indiana Public Media's, Moment of Science:
http://indianapublicmedia.org/amomentofscience/why-barns-are-red/
we learn the following:
"Have you ever noticed that most barns are red? There's a scientific reason for that.
A few hundred years ago European farmers started painting their barns with a mixture of linseed oil, milk, and lime. Believe it or not, the combination made a pretty good paint that protected wood. Sometimes they'd also add ferrous oxide, also known as rust, to the mix.

Welcome! I"m a photographer and digital artist living in the Mid-Atlantic area of the US. Drawing and creating my own little sketchy worlds are some of my earliest memories. Life did what it does and the art fell away, but I reconnected when digital photography was introduced. I enjoy adding to my love of photography by tinkering with computer art programs including Photoshop, Corel Painter, Rebelle and others , though I do not use Ai / Artificial Intelligence. I also love working completely freehand with no photo reference involved. All of which is allowing me to circle back to a semblance of my days of sketching and painting traditionally.

An image well worth the time you've put into it Lois. I love the story on why barns are red. I live in a converted barn, but mine is blue.
Jeff Swanson
Great processing on this beautiful barn Lois. The windows are very different then I'm used too. Also thanks for the class time.
David Simons
I couldn't think any other color than red for a barn. I have seen black, purple, green and red with white trim looks the best in my opinion. "http://www.grit.com/Community/Why-Are-Barns-Red.aspx"
