The Quiet of the Farm (Le calme de la ferme)

2018

Artist Comments
This landscape was inspired by the quiet old farmsteads found along the country back roads that I love. As time goes on, there are fewer and fewer left with the old red barns left standing. I painted this simple country scene as a quiet summer's landscape from my imagination.

About the Artist

Sharon found inspiration in the work of Hudson River School Artists, Minimalists, Tonalists and Realists. When she;s not painting, she loves to hike. She currently lives in Illinois.
