Artist Reply: I'd love to know who built this one, the design is so cool! Thanks Joanna!

I truly love this piece Terry It reminds me of something out of Harry Potter. There is something magical about old building. This is a beautiful composition and work, I really love it my friend

Artist Reply: Thank you Gavin. My huisband has the same eye as I do for old barns and buildings. We love going on drives to look for them. I love going to ghost towns, historic places. To me , this barn has as much interest to it as a famous monement would. There's the mystery of who once built and used it. The respect that it's still standing. This one has a cool structure that you don't typically find.

I love this barn, Terry. What a wonderful nostalgic scene!

Artist Reply: Really cool barn, not the typical ones you find. I've a fondness of barns as my father used to paint many old farmhouses and barns for a living. I used to love to go with him when he gave estimates. Wish I had a camera back then! I've some paintings of old barns that I treasure, as they bring back times with my late father. There is always the mystery of those who lived on the farms, and the stories they must have had. Old barns wil always fasicnate me.

It is indeed an interesting old place and appears to have been well maintained over time. I love old barns too. Your hubby did a great job on the photo for you.

Artist Reply: Thanks Maddison! Old barns draw me, as a moth to a flame. memories of my father, my cousin, and the yearning for a farm of my own. Only, with out all the hard work it takes to have one. I will have a little orchard and some chickens, hopefully in a year. I will be working on plans and relocating to our retirement home. Yeah! A barn, even a small one, will make it perfect!

really cool barn... I wonder if it is a tobacco drying place

Artist Reply: Thanks Corry! It does have the look of one, and may have been. I would have to see the other side to know. I recall they had to let in more air, by windows, to cure and dry it.
