This is one in a series of paintings reducing the interior of old barns down to lines, planes, and blocks of color that come together as an engaging space into which the viewer can walk. MEMORIES OF AN ISLAND BARN draws on my childhood experience playing in my grandfather's barn on an island off the coast of Maine. A flock of chickens roosted at the far end of the barn and there was an old carriage in the barn that afforded us endless play.
