Carol Young
"Sunday Sun, " Contemporary Barn Painting

2022

About the Item

This contemporary landscape painting by Carol Young captures a rural scene with a bright, contrasting palette. A barn sits in an orange field, with a line of red foliage behind it. One side of the barn is in the sun which shines from the left side of the composition, casting a warm glow on the white structure. The other side of the barn is rendered in a cool, shadowed blue, and a deep, stark shadow is cast by the structure across the orange field. Warm tones are visible throughout the piece, with red accents in the blue sky, the red roof of the barn, red foliage. The painting is made on canvas, and has clean, painted sides. It is wired and ready to hang. Carol C. Young is a landscape painter working in acrylics and oils. She is a plein air painter as well as a studio artist whose contemporary work is primarily identified by a bold use of light and shadow along with iconic depictions of structures within the rural landscape. A fine arts major at the College of New Rochelle, NY, her paintings have won several awards including best in show at the Pequot Library Art show in Connecticut, first place in the acrylic division at the Rowayton Arts Center in Connecticut, and second place for acrylics/oils at the Mary O. Fritchie Art Show in Westhampton Beach, New York. “My technique is spontaneous," Carol says. "I want to capture the moment in my painting, intrigued by the patterns created by sunlight, shadows and shapes at that time of day. When I paint structures, I am inspired by those that hold history. Ones that have been part of the landscape for a long time - ones that may be gone soon. America's rural landscape influences the majority of my work - structures that have a weathered history are intriguing, lonely and a nostalgic expression that inspires me. Shapes, light, shadows, and the magnificence of color are what move me to paint. I want to capture the beauty of history in an old farmhouse or barn, before the ever changing landscape changes again forever.” Carol resides in Connecticut with her husband David, daughter Isabella, and two Long-Haired Whippets, Cobalt & Hopper.
