If you’ve ever driven in the countryside, you’re likely to have seen dilapidated, abandoned homes that have long ago served their purposes. It makes one wonder… who lived there? Why did they leave?
These old buildings have such character, even in their demise. The open gaps and rotting wood that once housed individuals and families, must have stories to tell.
This painting was inspired by a photo that captured my attention because of its mood and feeling of loneliness. The grays and browns of the weathered wood almost give it a sense of eeriness. Yet, its history gives it dignity.
