The Lumber Yard building was one that I had dreamt of painting. I finally mustered up the courage during Midway’s 2007 “Plein Air” contest. I consider it my first architectural subject. It was quite enjoyable. The shadows from one of the only nearby trees intrigued me as I imagined what this building must of looked like years ago…what it could have been like to visit, and how busy the yard was at one time.
This painting also has special meaning for me, as it is the first painting I’ve sold, and to a dear friend, Hilma Bellessa. An artist herself, and collector, it is an honor to have this painting in her home.
