Cattle Panel


        Done this summer. Sitting in the truck just in front of the “gate” with the AC running to endure the extreme heat. It is a little hard now in November to remember how hot it was- though we've not had any winter yet. The iris have not had enough freezing weather to turn them all yellow!   This drawing of a simple country setting is offset by the details in the foreground, which give it a linear feel.  In this case, the detail of the unmatched panels adds just enough specific touch to let you know that this is a real place, a local bypath.   Real people set up this scene; It has been waiting for someone to draw!  Not sure what the structure had been used for in the past, but it is mostly idle now.  There may be some machinery inside. I suppose there is a chance that someone even lived in the place for a time.
