The Pink Barn

The Pink Barn

12x16

It is not very often that one sees a pink barn.  Oh, sometimes you can see one because the red paint is faded and it gives the illusion that it is pink, but this one was actually pink and I had to paint it.  Fall was just hitting the southern part of Colorado and northern New Mexico and Coni asked me to travel along to meet up with her friends- the high desert painters.  They had rented the sweetest house at the base of the mountains in northern New Mexico and there is where I spotted it- the pink barn. The sun was shining full fledge upon it so no shadows to speak of - just little bits here and there. The barn also had aqua/blue doors- nice touch.

There is a pink horse trailer that I need to paint next over by Saguache- yup, I've been keeping my eye on that one.
