Perhaps it was the acrylics class where we painted a picture of a barn in winter...
Perhaps it was the barn I visited in Edmonton in September - one my grandfather built in the 1930s.
But I have begun to notice - and photograph - barns...
Old ones...
Red ones...
Unpainted ones.
Massive structures that age beautifully.
Impressive architectural feats created - not by architects - but by farmers and rural carpenters...
Beautiful!
I snap pictures of them whenever we drive in the country...
Why are you taking all these pictures of barns? Terry asks.
I want to draw or paint pictures of some of them, I tell him. This may be my "year of the barn"!
