Crisp Morning Late Autumn New England Barns

About This Painting:
We've been having some warm days here in New England, considering it's December. I took advantage of it today to get outside and paint over at Harkness Park. Even though the leaves are all down, there is a wonderful variety of grays in the woods! Wow! Nothing like fresh air and sunshine!

Media: oil on Belgian linen mounted on professional artboard
Size: 10 in X 8 in (25.4 cm X 20.3 cm)

Thanks "Artist", it took just a bit of time in the morning, long enough to drive over to the park, set up, paint before the light changed too drastically, and make it home for a late lunch. (and like 'they' say, the years of practice before that).
