Barns are part of the American landscape but they don't always have to be red and traditional. This contemporary painting features a simplistic barn sitting in a peach colored field - a suggestion of the beach and the sea beyond. The sky is alive with shimmering opalescence. Barns evoke a feeling of a simpler era, and this painting is a minimalist composition that takes me back in time.
