I revisited Boggy Creek Farm this morning and decided to try and tackle their old farmhouse. When I began painting, the shadows were all climbing up and over the house and by the time I finished several hours later they were hanging down from above. I went ahead and kept the early ones. I bet that in about April this garden area was full of greenery but I made do with what little plant life I could see. I'll be on a plein air paintout in Fredericksburg this weekend so I needed to go get the cobwebs out of my outdoor painting skilz. My goal next time on a house like this is to... simplify. Maybe even just crop one area of the house and do that.

Hilda and Doug, there's something so romantic and trance-inducing to me about a simple old farmhouse like this with rocking chairs on the porch. I'm glad you're enjoying look at this also and thank you both so much for your kind comments!
there's something about this that I just love.
The shadows? The movement? The color? It's all there.
