East Boulder Farm Building2015-06

It's beautiful to see open spaces and old farm buildings in the ever growing cosmopolitan city of Boulder, but they are slowly fading away into it’s landscape. I was thinking of this when I was painting this scene you can almost see through the deterating building. The fields and weeds were lush and in full bloom in the early summer of 2015.

I really liked how the building walls are almost disappearing, slates missing and the weathered boards are slowly disintergrating. The newer battered roof is holding it together.
