Cabin at New Harmony
Cabin at New Harmony
Pastel
8x12
2005

Painted the afternoon before the start of the First Brush of Spring paintout in the historic part of New Harmony.

I got to New Harmony in the late afternoon of the day before the start of the paintout.
I saw the fence leading to the cabin and decided to sketch it. It was kind of a warm-up before 3 days of painting.

I really like the fence, although the black is a bit overpowering. I've always though it needs something in the foreground, but I can't figure out what. The background needs some more work too.
