"Barns Aglow" Update
SOLD
This is super subtle but I didn't like the way the tree shadow looked like it was growing out of the barn shadow. I think this looks a lot better. (This picture is a little dark but I think it's closer to the true color.)

"Barns Aglow"
I'm really happy with how this turned out. I might trying doing a larger version of it.

"The Road Home"
SOLD
If you've read my blog in the past you'll know that I love to have bits of a tinted canvas show through at the end of a painting, especially if it's orange. I'm getting comfortable enough with landscapes to have some of that going on. I don't like to tint the canvas and then paint on it right away. Too much of the paint pulls through that way. I like to tint, let dry and then paint which is how I did this painting. (Not by any planning on my part by the way, I just happened to have an orange tinted canvas laying around!)
