Barn II

Today I wanted to put more detail into my drawing of an old barn that I did last year (see post on 25 September 2013).

I started working on the barn roof first and added a small section where the tin had been torn off by the wind and showed the wooden beams running the length of the barn through the opening.

From there I worked my way down the barn, adding the barn board onto the top section of the barn walls above the concrete base.

This was followed by putting in the windows and the main barn door.

Next, I put in the two large main trees in front of the barn, this was followed by the two trees toward the end of the barn on the right side of the drawing.















I added in the fence running from the corner of the barn behind the trees.

I put in the grasses and growies along the edges of the roadway and around the base of the trees.

The foreground of the drawing looked too plain and needed something so I added a couple of round hay bales to the left side of the drawing.

Lastly, I added a tree in behind the hay bales.

Thank you for coming to look at my artwork.
