Yet another little barn done in oil. This too seems older to me than the previous similar painting. Perhaps this is even 1972. It is defiantly in the era of the Covered Bridge. Unfortunately there was no date or signature on this one either. The Green Tree stands out and there is something oddly interesting about the painting's evenly balanced compositions. The dried corn or wheat on the right really destroy the sense of scale. That shape makes the tree and the house so much smaller then I believe mom intended it.
The Green Tree
The Green Tree detail: Mom always seemed to have fun with these little flourishes and accents.
The Green Tree detail : odd little red barn
The Green Tree detail : The Green Tree ( I titled it ) I really like this tree. It is just so impressionistic and loose and well, green.
