"Unexpected Friends"

Watercolor © 2010

Some friendships are forged from the most unspected

encounters, - friendships that last for a lifetime.

Watch for them they're all around you every day.

You just have to keep your eyes open, and be willing to take

a chance on the adventure of a lifetime that will come

from just one encounter.

J.G. Evans Stage Stop ~ Winter

Black Forest, Colorado

Watercolor 24 x 36 © 2009

The livery stable of the old J.G. Evans Stage Stop is a lovely old barn in Black Forest, Colorado, and is one of the last of it's architectural style in eastern Colorado. This is the second time I've painted this barn, once as a children's book illustration, and once as a framed painting. I really enjoy painting the same subject at different times during the year. There's so much more to see and experience about the subject when seen with different lighting and the changing colors of the seasons.

We like them tall, we like them short,
We like them skinny and the fat ones that snort.

If you lived on a farm, just where would you sleep,
In the barn full of horses, cattle and sheep?
