About The Artwork
Barns have always served a purpose as functional structures. They were never intended to tell a story. However, old barns do just that. They evoke a sense of nostalgia in people that is hard to define. Years of hard use and exposure to the elements build distinct characters in each barn. As an artist, I like to enhance certain components of a barn that better emulate the story of that barn’s existence. This particular barn was destroyed in a devastating storm in 2020. The family wanted a painting to remember their beloved barn so I was commissioned to do this piece. It was painted on a surviving barn door.

Why barn paintings? The Barn Series: Immortalizing an Icon No other structure symbolizes the American Midwest quite as powerfully as the family barn. For those of us who grew up here, barns were as perennial as the trees. The heart of every homestead, barns were no less than church steeples — sublime, time-worn landmarks that charted our journeys along winding streets and gravel roads. But today, these structures are being lost. Many were destroyed by the derecho of 2020 and others are threatened by new development and high preservation costs. My barn series is an attempt to celebrate the survivors and pay visual tribute to those that are gone.
