Description
When I encounter an interesting farm with several building, I like to study the scene before me from several angles. As I move around, the distinctive shapes and characters of the various buildings create many different compositions. I look for what I consider the best, most pleasing composition. In this case I like the house on the right-the center of interest, but hidden just a bit by the small forward barn and even the tree. But it still dominates. The barns are subordinated by their muted colors but they are still important to the painting-as they are to any working farm! They are interesting shapes and they occupy more space in the painting than the house-even running out of our view to the left (suggesting, by the way, that there is more to this farm than the painting can relate-500-1,000 acres maybe!). The winter trees in the background pull all of the buildings together visually while the beginning snow provides an appealing atmosphere.---Jim
