The colour and composition of farm buildings combined with the direction of the light attracted me to attempt this painting from an old photograph for a friend of mine who lives in Eastwood, Nottinghamshire. I was really pleased with the tones achieved on the brickwork of the gable end of the barn and fortunately kept the foreground area light and whispy to try to copy the impression given in the photograph of a warm summer day.
