This is the third painting in the Painted Etude Series.

"Westcliffe Barns" (Etude #3), by Keith Bond, 4 x 5, oil on board, $150
This painting was an exercise in seeing abstract shapes and colors. To avoid being caught up in the 'things', I turned a photo upside down and just began paing the shapes as I saw them. This is one of my favorite exercises to do. I was delighted with the results when the painting was turned right side up.
