Barn and barrow


This old barn is deceiving in appearance, as the back side has fallen away. The rusty wheelbarrow sits atop the lid of a cistern.

The Windsor Bridge

We have 17 covered bridges in nearby Ashtabula County, and this one in Windsor, Ohio rates among the favorites. While painting it, I heard several Amish buggies cross it, the clop, clop of the horses resonated in a low tone as they navigated the long span.

November hay

I spent a nice Sunday afternoon painting these rolled bales of hay.
