Crossed Sabers Ranch barn by Kate Dardine

I've been working on this painting for a couple of weeks...started out with a much more complicated composition but kept simplifying, getting to the essentials of what this painting is about - a beautiful round barn set in a gorgeous landscape in northeastern Oregon. As I was painting it, I felt a sense of the barn being on hallowed ground. Something about the shape of the barn, and the white cross bars on the hayloft door, remind me of a church. I guess to me, Spirit can be found here in the silence. Perhaps the only sound is the breath of wind rustling the drying grasses of late summer as a cloud builds with afternoon moisture.

The barn is on the Crossed Sabers Ranch, just off the road to Imnaha, outside of Joseph, Oregon. As soon as it is dry enough, I'll sign it and do a preliminary varnish (with retouch varnish) and ship it up to my gallery in Joseph - Kelly's Gallery on Main Street.

"Crossed Sabers Ranch" is a 20x20 oil on gallery-wrapped canvas.

Wallowa County Barn - Summer, by Kate Dardine

Another in a series of barns from Wallowa County, Oregon. This one is on the road between Enterprise and Joseph. Another small oil painting on canvas (8x10) headed for Kelly's Gallery in Joseph, Oregon.

I love the lighting in this painting, and the contrast of the bright red barn glowing against the yellow-green fields in the background. A perfect day in Northeast Oregon!
