Hubbel Road Farm, Evening

A friend and I went out one late afternoon/evening this past August (2007) and found this lovely little farm scene. The red buildings were enhanced by the warm evening light, which also cast its glow on everything else. Very peaceful, tranquil spot. This is a 6x12 oil (check out Colette's version which was done in pastel with a slightly different composition). The jpeg doesn't show the colors very accurately, for example the barns are not as bright red as they appear. This painting won the "Best of Show" award at the Suburban Rochester Art Group fall show (October, 2007).
