Democratic Barn

"Democratic Barn"

w/c....22 x 30...nfs

This old barn stood near Oran, Missouri for many years.  Each

policitical season, it became covered with election signs.  Since

the owner, Louie Hirshowich,(spelling), was a democrat, only

democrats were allowed apparently to put signs up.  You

could alway date a picture of the barn by the signs on it.
PRINTS AVAILABLE 

It has since collapsed and is no more.

Sorry for the long delay in posting.  I have been busy studying

how to post, how to sell on line, how to , how to....

It seems it takes more time to post and sell your art than

it does to paint it.  So many places and sites, it becomes

so confusing I'm not sure where to go.  This is a plein air

painting I did near home.  It's an old dairy farm that has fallen

into disrepair.  Folks keep horses on the property and plant

crops.  It has a lot of personality, and would speak to me

everyday on the way home from the work I do to pay

the bills.  It seems my wife still likes to eat and have gas

in her car.  This farm has about six paintings waiting to happen.

I guess these old barns just speak to me.  All the new

metal barns that are being built will never be the subject

of any painting.  They probably won't outlast the old

cypress barns.
