"JUST DOWN THE ROAD"

5x7, oil on canvas board, $65.00 + $10.00 S/H

On one of my trips up the coast of California I got to get off the main roads to see the more rural areas of the state.  There were lots of farms and dirt roads that lead to barns like this one.  I don't see many barns in the O.C.

Love the way the dirt road pulls me in.

This has such great atmosphere! Feels like I'm standing there in the cool shade. Love all of the shades of soft purple in the road. Really lovely!

Great piece, Dori. I love how the tree and its shadow frame the barn.

Great composition and variety of light and dark values. A welcoming scene to come home to!
