As I painted this old red barn against the backdrop of an early morning sunrise I wanted to create a picture of beauty and nostalgia... a place of warmth in the midst of the cold winter snow... a reminder that God's presence is seen in every aspect of His marvelous creation.♥

Life has come to a halt and only this little red barn is a refuge for life. Hazel, what a lovely scene, with the stark trees outlined in the foreground and the soft trees as a backdrop. L/F
