382 The Barn - Domaine de Fumel 23.5 x 14cm NFS

You will see the sketch of this watercolour in the Sketchbook in the Domaine de Fumel section of the Gallery. This is the second time I have painted this barn that as seen better days and it probably won't be the last time, as I find it such a fascinating subject. The way that the posts lack verticality and the darkness of the underside of the roof, from a low viewpoint, make this an irresistible subject. Having painted the scene very quickly, I then added the figures to provide added interest
