Affectionally named “The Tetanus Barn” by our neighbors who’s property this is on…this is a 16x12 original acrylic and mixed-media painting on canvas, inspired by one of those old country structures that has long outlived its practical years but somehow becomes more beautiful with age.
Set beneath a glowing sunset of gold, coral, lavender, and blue, the weathered barn stands quietly among tall grasses and wild growth, its worn roofline and rough silhouette giving the piece a sense of history and character. There’s a little humor in the name, but also a real affection for the kind of rural landmark that becomes part of the landscape and part of the story of a place.
The dimensional elements are created with laser-engraved wood pieces that have been individually stained, painted, and layered over the hand-painted acrylic background, adding depth and texture to the barn, grasses, trees, and foreground.
Because of the layered construction, the artwork has a subtle three-dimensional quality that changes with the light and gives the piece much more presence in person than a flat image can show.
This is a truly unique piece for someone who loves old barns, rural landscapes, and artwork with a little personality and story behind it.
It comes in the black floating frame shown, fully finished and ready to hang.
Details: 16" × 12" original acrylic and mixed-media artwork on canvas; laser-engraved, stained and hand-painted wood elements; black floating frame included; no prints will be produced.
