On a drive devoted to finding my next beautiful painting, I came across this great scene in the mountains of south central West Virginia. I'm always drawn to great old barns and I am also partial to old trucks and cars parked for who knows how long along the roads or in the fields along the way. This place had them both: a great looking old red dump truck and an old barn with a fantastic variety of shapes and colors and lines, and contrasts! I'm often asked why I paint so many old barns and my answer is "because they are beautiful and ..... they are going away!" Many are simply falling down and , if replaced, are replaced, but with a building with none of the beauty and character of the old one. Notice, there is one of those in this painting in the background behind the truck! It is lurking there ready to take over for the old, beautiful one! I am glad I got to this one before that happened!~Jim
Jim is a graduate of West Virginia University. He received a Bachelor of Arts in Art in 1970 and a Master's of Instructional Design in 1977. An artist all of his life, Jim took some instruction with Leland McLelland after moving to Central Ohio at the end of 1977. This was a pivotal time for Jim because he finally learned watercolor techniques which allowed him to illustrate. A realistic interpreter of what he sees, Jim finally felt like he'd found the medium that he could identify with. Though watercolor can be unforgiving, Jim has learned to create beautiful watercolors of the things he loves best. As you view his work you will see some of the same themes: barns, old barns with such character; farmsteads, yes you will see some...
