Description
This colorful landscape artwork goes well in rustic farmhouse decor but can also harmonize well with contemporary decor.
This artwork was inspired by a scene from near Brownwood, Texas. I love painting cactus so I added some cactus and took my usual liberties, as a colorist, so that pretty much every color in the rainbow is present.
The scene showcases an old barn near Brownwood, Texas.
I hope the viewer can share my nostalgia about a time when ranchers and farmers almost had to be carpenters, building and repairing their wooden barns and shacks. This one was certainly built many years ago, but appears to still be useful. Its metal roof seems to have developed a patina over the years.

Great work JS! Old barns are a favorite subject of mine.
J S Ellington replied:
Yes. It is strange that when they (or any structure) are new, they are functional, but when they begin to artfully settle, they are mesmerizing to me.
