About The Artwork
Part of my passion is spending time in the countryside looking for something that inspires a painting. This abandoned barn made the perfect backdrop in the springtime to showcase all the wildflower blooms. I created it in an impressionism style since that allows me so much color freedom. As usual, the main attraction for me here was the sharp contrast of light and shadow on this bright spring day. I tried to impart the same soothing simplicity that most of my landscapes have. The trees and foreground vegetation are done in varying shades of green. The wildflowers are reds, yellows, and violet. The canvas is a gallery wrap. A hanging wire is attached. It was painted with Liquitex Heavy Body Acrylics and varnished with Liquitex Gloss Medium and Varnish. It is signed. A certificate of authenticity is provided.

United States
I am a Texas artist and have painted for most of my 71 years, being from a family of artists. My mother's youngest sister, aunt Patsy, spent a lot of time with me, guiding and encouraging me, and I credit her for my passion for art. She painted under the name of "von." When she died in August of 2018, I began placing "von" somewhere on the face of each painting as an acknowledgment of her role in my artistic endeavors. My inspirations come from my home environment in Texas. Things that I have taken for granted all my life are now frequent subjects for art. Mesquites, cactus, old barns and shacks, windmills, wooden fence posts, wildflowers and the like are favorite subjects. I am a colorist, and I enjoy using color to give new life to otherwise fading beauty. In addition to color, I strive for dimension, movement, depth and unusual perspective.
