Three Goldfinches

Three Goldfinches...16 x 20...Oil
$300
This is the Alsup family barn on the outskirts of Sikeston, MO.
The barn stood for decades in this place as civilization
slowly encroached on its boundaries. The barn slowly
began to fail in the 1090's. I have taken many photos,
but this one was special with the light shining through
the broken roof rafters. Three little goldfinches are
sitting in the trees around the barn. Some months
after this was taken, the barn was torn down. I think
about all the history this old barn has seen.
