Heirloom, 24×24″ acrylic on canvas

Barns are the heirloom variety in Vermont. While the new and shiny may be desired….it’s the old and weathered that provide the taste of long ago. They dot the landscape of my everyday. Holding the soul of the farm. Where generations have toiled and worked to feed and care for their beloveds.

Barns are a legacy of my ancestors and they hold an energy that I cannot explain. They are as sacred as buildings of worship. Where sacred every day acts have taken place in ritual during all seasons.
