This barn and silo are located not far from the wavy barn. And it's not red. I hope to do more with this one.
I just finished a book called Alla Prima by Al Gury on "traditional direct painting." He illustrates two artists of interest to me: Jon Redmond, and Tom Thomson. Thomson was a Candadian artist, who died young (1917). Self-taught, he spent only five years painting wilderness landscapes in Ontario basically out of a cigar box and a canoe. All his paintings are small, and they number in the hundreds, and, judging from the reproductions I have seen, they are fabulous. You can google both these artists to see their work. I will have more to say about Thomson in the future.
The black and white I started yesterday, but finished both today. The view is across the canal on the New Jersey side over the Delaware to the east coast of Pennsylvania. I am not really that fond of green, but it's everywhere. I have been looking at reproductions of Tom Thomson, the great Canadian outdoor painter. He seems to pick scenes where he can use red, despite the green, and he does it without barns. I have to study him further.
