Long Barn

This is the second painting in my personal painting a day challenge. This tree and long barns are on the road I take to work every day, and I'd been wanting to paint them for a long time. As I was getting set up, a fellow crossed the street to say hello, and in broken English explained that his brother was a painter down in Mexico. We did a lot of smiling and nodding at each other (my Spanish is worse than his English), but before he left he looked at my composition and said "how romantic".
