Quiet Barn
When I first came to Redbubble, I only had a couple pieces to post. I always reduced the size of my photos before editing them(making them too small for here), just didn’t have a reason to keep them full size until Redbubble. Anyways, I threw this pic up, just so I had more than 2 posted. I didn’t really even like it. The original shot’s exposure was all kinds of screwed up. I edited so much, I was just plain sick of it. But like I said, it was a filler pic. I sooo did not expect the amount of attention it received, much less that it sold. I’ve actually grown to really like it too. So I thought I’d share this, and the original shot with everyone. So here it is:

This piece was my very first sold piece. It was also chosen for the Featured Art Page (before group featuring), featured in A Photographer’s Craft group, and was a finalist in the May US Scenic Photo Contest.
Thank You!!

Karri, I love this and can see why it was featured and sold! These old barns some how give me such joy because they take me back to my roots of Upper michigan and all the barns I help stuff with hay for the winter feed of the Cows and Cattle.
Love it!

I love old barn and this particular one is no exception. I really like the soft colors of the sky and the added brightness in the center. This goes immediately into my cherished collection of favorites. Wonderful work. I hope you enjoy my gallery as much as I enjoyed yours. Oh, if you like majestic mountain scenery and horses, you might enjoy my 2009 western/cowboys digital illustration calendar. It’s almost completed. Kindly add me to your watchlist to know when it’s uploaded to RedBubble.
