Red Roof

My husband has been bugging me to paint this old barn since last fall. The day before all the autumn leaves started falling we decided to go and get pictures.

It rained the whole way there, but when we reached the barn the sun decided to shine and I got great references of the barn and the cattle. I like the cattle but decided on the barn for this painting. I'll do cattle another time.




Red Roof: An acrylic painting, 16 x 20". (For the Porcupine Art Club exhibit titled "Environment", in December.)

Step 4: Finished.

Step 3: Details in the building.



Step 2: Adding colour.



Step 1: Painting the Grisaille. (5 value scale)
