I finished this painting this evening - it is the painting we will be doing at our Monday evening class this week at Riverside Arts Center in Wapakoneta, Ohio. The source of this painting is a photograph which I took this summer. I previously painted a different view of this old house earlier this fall for the September project of Watercolor Workshop. The painting is 11" x 14" and is painted on 140 lb. cold-pressed Fabriano-Artistico watercolor paper.
Welcome to Barb's Daily Creations! I have lofty ambitions - I want to post a new drawing or painting every day. The purpose of this, of course is to stay creative and on task artistically even when I may not feel the muses calling, prodding and pushing. I hope that you enjoy my humble efforts, because, ultimately, that is the purpose of creating art - to enrich lives - mine and yours. Thanks for visiting!
Write it on your heart that every day is the best day of the year.

Nicely done, Barb. I can see the character of the old house plainly.
I do love those colors, Barb. And each time I read the title I think, "Are there old buzzards living in that house? Or is the house called Old Buzzard?" ha ha
Thanks, Carol...this old house does have a lot of character - I am happy I was able to capture it.
Thanks, Rhonda - I call it the old buzzard house because the day my friend Pamela and I went taking photographs, it had an old buzzard sitting on the roof and that is what Pamela named it! :)
