This is my No. 27 in my 365/2013 series
"Acts 2:38 Barn"
8X10 watercolor
This barn is near Warren, Tennessee, just across the state line from Florence, Ala.
I found it early one morning while roaming before starting a class in a workshop i was conducting in Florence.
I love barns wiht writing on them especially with messages like this
"The Peter said into them, repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and ye shall recieve the gift of the Holy Spirit." Acts 2:39
There is also a cross on the roof.

"RT. 66 ROUND BARN"

No. 3 in my 365/2013 series
This is an 8X10 watercolor of the historic Round Barn in Arcadia, Oklahoma just NE of Edmond, Oklahoma. It was one of the ,ost popular stopping places for travelers on Hwy. 66 during the 1950's.
Recently going through renovations it's lost, in my opinion, some of the oldtime charm it had even i around 1976 when i first painted it.
