Barns at sunset

“833, Barns at Sunset” Oil painting by Mariko Irie

This is the Spring Ranch in Little River, CA.

I painted that area before:

Looking from south

“Driving in the Sun”

These barns are old. I’ve red “the oldest barn is circa 1864.”

I was heading south the sun was going down.

After rainy days the ground is coved with fresh green. It’s spring in California.

The warm soft light gave me sweet nostalgia.
