My wife and I used to own a farm on Lake Simcoe, in Ontario, Canada. For many years, this was the view from my art studio. The north window faced this barn wall and pasture, where I planted holly hocks, which we enjoyed every summer.
I enjoy looking at paintings that I have done in the past, that show places and things that may no longer exist as they once were. It brings back fond memories in a way that only a painting can. Not only does it record the way it looked, but also the way it made me feel.
This painting measures 16 inches high by 20 inches wide. Friends of ours purchased it at one of my art shows a few years ago and they seem to enjoy it too. Prints are available here.
