Red Barn on a Quiet Farm Landscape Painting

Red Barn on an Old Farm

This painting was inspired by the old red barns and white farmhouses that were once so common along the country backroads, that I love.  There is something so peaceful and pleasant about being out in the country on a quiet summers day!  I hope to capture that in my paintings of summer time in the beautiful American Heartland.

Large Barn Landscape Painting 24" x 36"

In the Summer Field

This is currently the largest painting that I have available, measuring 24" x 36".  I wanted to paint this piece with one of my simple blue summer skies, that represent the type that I love here in the Midwest.  This painting is completely done from my imagination and represents the quiet, austere, peacefulness that one can find here yet in the American Heartland.

White Farmhouse Fence Line Painting

 

 Fence Past the Old Farmhouse 

 

 This is another of my miniature 4 x 6" paintings.  I often get ideas for new paintings when driving along through the country.  A fence line on a slight hill gave me the idea for this painting.  I decided on a simple old farmhouse with green shutters, as the main subject for this piece.  This painting is done on hardboard in acrylic paint.

Red Barn in a Red Poppy Field Painting

In case you are wondering where I come up with Midwestern landscape paintings with red poppies in them, well they are definitely from my imagination, as poppies are not a field crop in the Heartland.  We have grown quite a few varieties of flowers on our old farmstead over the years.  In a small naturalized meadow area I had planted seeds for the red Flanders Poppies, and they did naturalize there for us for a number of years.  These are the poppies that are thought of on Veteran's day and were known for growing on the damaged battlefields in Europe, especially from WWI in Flanders Field, Belgium.  I love the bright color of these poppies and decided to work them into my landscapes, when I think they will work well in a painting.   This piece is my newest painting that I just finished up this week.

Fence-posts by the Old Red Barn

I decided on one of those beautiful "Blue Sky Days" found here in the Midwest at this time of year, for this new painting.  I just finished this piece today, so one might say that it is still "hot of the easel", so to speak!   I love painting simple scenes of the American Heartland, and hope that you will enjoy viewing my original work.  

Original Red Barn Old Farm Landscape Art Painting

This is a smaller painting than I normally do.  This piece measures 10 x 8" and is done in acrylic paint on an archival quality linen over board canvas.   I love the big blue skies of our midwestern summers and this piece is my impression of such a day in the heartland.
