    If you haven't seen the two-DVD set, "The Impressionists", you don't know what you're missing!

    I rented it from Netflix and absolutely loved it. It is an enactment of the lives of Monet, Renoir, Manet, Cezanne, Degas, and other Impressionist painters living at that time around Paris. Fascinating and eye-opening!

This was painted on location in the heart of the Hudson River School, at Frederic Church’s Olana estate in Hudson, NY. You can feel his presence on the property and all that inspired his work. There is a complex of red barns with views over the valley and out to the Berkshire Mountains. I couldn’t have picked a more perfect morning to paint there.

Oh Jamie I really like the red barn and the view.

Like the use of the staircase to help the painting read right into the barn. Also use of the barn color in the foreground just tie it all together.

Just beautiful. I love this piece. Thank you so much for posting. It reminds me of a John Szarkowski photograph.
