"Winter's Pause" 2020  watercolor C. Asheley Kapelewski

This is another farm in the lower Champlain Valley of Vermont, on Route 30. I often drive by this and other handsome farms on my way up to Burlington. The farm wasn't being used at the time, now there are cows in the field to the left, and signs of industry in the unused areas around the barn. Good to see it in production again. The maples to the right must be hundreds of years old. I love to paint farm buildings and architecture in general, this was a great opportunity to combine the landscape of Vermont and my interest in barns.
