Weathered Red

Like a collage, this old Wisconsin barn has added layers of paint, patches, and repairs with materials of different hardnesses and textures. Then sun, rain, and wind have mellowed them all into subtle tones and understated colors. The classic cherry red now grayed and streaked stands atop the creams and ochres of the native limestone. The siding and windows add rectilinear structure to the organic curves of the glaciered stone. The resulting abstract still life resonates in rural tranquility.
