"Hay Barn", Charles Maling, Turchin Center for the Arts, Boone, NC

"Hay Fields" by Charles Maling is a wonderful, soft watercolor that tells the story of the light in the Appalachian Mountains surrounding Boone, North Carolina. I love the way Charles applied yellows in this painting. The yellows bring forward the light that is reflected in the band alongside the road and the flowers give us perspective on barn in the distance. I also appreciate the deep shadows in the hills and the rough nature of the roof of the barn which is achieved through a series of dry brush techniques.
