Sometimes a potential painting starts with a passing glance. And if your heart says, “go back and take a second look”, you’ve got to listen! In the South, we don’t dare trespass—not just from common sense, but out of respect. When I parked my truck just off this Tennessee highway, and got close enough for a sketch, I noticed the gate was open. I didn’t dare go inside, even though I wanted to get up close. Something about that temptation fascinated me, along with other facets like the obvious—the juxtaposition of an old barn with a much newer gate.
