"Feed Barn" is a study undertaken after a 15 year absence from artwork by this artist.

Currently living in the country after spending most of his life in the city, the artist wanted to create a simple still life of a typical country feed barn located in southwestern Louisiana.

The "Feed Barn" was a study in line art and shadow techniques.

As opposed to the majority of the pieces of art depicted on this web site, this study was done directly from viewing the subject as opposed to drawings taken from photographs.

Much of the details were accomplished by utilizing trial and error techniques.

This study in pen and ink techniques was completed in April 2006.

The work took approximately 20 hours to complete and measures about 8 x 12 inches on an 11 x 14 background.
