Contemporary Primitives 

I wanted to try a new subject matter and a different method in my painting style. I feel these paintings have more of a contemporary primitive look. I enjoyed painting the barns in a rural setting, which included other elements like fields, trees, or fences. The different brush strokes gave it an impressionistic feel as well as texture and movement. The barns and its rural surroundings are in a simple, heartfelt, and unrefined style.
