This painting was done from old and new photo references combined with verbal descriptions of how the house and property used to look over 75 years ago. It was an interesting journey back through time, and I loved the challenge of recreating this old homestead.

I was instantly drawn to the strong reds and greens in this scene, at a time when the greens are overtaking the landscape. The tree growing around the large boulder is a pretty common sight along the woodland streams in the mountains, and provided some interesting textural elements. It was a really hot day, so painting by water was a must!
