Painting of the Month- FEBRUARY
/The painting I have chosen for the month of February is
' Stars Over Patchwork Barn'.
There is a barn up the road from me in rural Ontario that I pass often. I refer to it as the 'patchwork' barn. I call it this because the barn looks like it has been kept together over the many years with patches of material. I have painted this barn a few times now and never tire of its unique appearance, reminiscent of old patchwork quilts.

This painting is currently on route to Elevation Gallery where it will be part of their new show group show NOCTALGIA- Guided by Stars we can no longer see.
In an era dominated by the ceaseless glow of artificial satellites, astronomers worldwide find themselves immersed in a profound sense of melancholy. The once-prominent stars that adorned our night skies are fading into obscurity, overshadowed by the relentless intrusion of man-made luminance. This diminishing celestial spectacle has given birth to a poignant term: "Noctalgia."
