Description
When I first painted the old red barn this is how it looked before I "repaired" some of the beams and added more plants and leaves to the tree, and shadows to the surrounding vegetation.
Feelings of nostalgia come over me as I remember old barns that I have ventured into over the years, hoping to find some forgotten treasure. I am reminded of how much fun it might be for a child to wander into a dilapidated old barn and discover a hayloft and ladder, and perhaps a bale of hay along with a few chickens. This would be a perfect place to explore and discover what old farm treasures might be hidden away in some remote corner. The broken windows and missing door would be an open invitation to some wild birds to find a place in the rafters to build their nests.♥
