included a picture . . .



I thought I would update the previous picture with this one (which is much better) from the back of the property. I also included a picture from the front of the house looking out the front door. The front, which is really not a way we will be entering the house, has a porch and steps, but no sidewalk leading up to it. I think years ago the horses pulled up and dropped people off, but as for the last 30 years or so, the side door has essentially become the "front door."

I took this picture tonight because I am going to be doing a work of art that includes the buildings and life around my farm. My farm . . . I love the sound of that. I am working on a large drawing of this image that will eventually be cut up into 2.5 x 3.5 card sizes and sent to people all over America and Canada. Is it part of an artist trading card swap that I have been involved with before, and this month will be doing again with the theme of farm life. How appropriate for me. :)

What a beautiful picture. I love the light and colors that you captivated. How fun it will be to see how things progress during the spring and summer. I'm looking forward to more pictures. Laura
