In the distance

Last time I went to the farm at Macdonald College I noticed the silhouette of John Abbott College in the distance across the frozen cornfield. So I went back there today but I had the sun in my eyes. And it was really hard to keep my feet warm. The cold wind blows right across those fields and right through my car.

    I know you’re really suffering for your art, but I want you to know I really appreciate seeing the results. I love the patterns and lines in this, along with the dynamic composition and those clear colors. Thank you!

    • Thanks Vicky. I’m not really suffering, just takes me a while to warm up when I get home. I appreciate having the time to do this every day so that more than makes up for the cold.

  2. Love the power lines (and cast shadows)… stay warm!

    I love this one… “everyday” subject captured with beautiful painting style. You are managing to capture so many of these “everyday” subjects and give them a special life. Also, the one-point perspective really draws the eye into the scene.

    Keep up the great work, Shari.
