Diebold Farm, Oil on canvas

Accepted into the first Juried Salon Show of Traditional Oils, sponsored by Oil Painters of America - Petoskey, Michigan - Summer 2013

“This charming farm in our area captivated me as it depicted a slice of life which is sadly disappearing. I spent much time photographing the farm from different angles, but chose this one with the different architecture of the barns and its strong directional light. Of course, the cows added that special element necessary to complete this halcyon scene.”  ~ Linda Kollacks
