Barn View in Chester

I did this painting the day after the last one I posted. I had stayed over at my sister's house planning to go visiting with her, but she wasn't feeling well. So instead I drove back upstate and looked for a new view that we hadn't painted before. I did a larger painting of this barn last year. I drove around until I could see it from a different angle.
