Geraniums By The Dairy Barn – Watercolor

Geraniums By The Dairy Barn watercolor by Yvonne Pecor Mucci (Framed 16 x 20, Available)

This is the 3rd watercolor painting completed for the Cedarburg Plein Air competition. It is of geraniums at the original Dietrich fieldstone dairy barn from the turn of the century. I can’t resist those stone barns, and the red geraniums were a plus. Thanks to John and Cecily who were so gracious to let me paint on their property.

It is great fun to compete in plein air. Really pushes you to become a better artist, and you get to meet lots of other artists.

Last week I was one of 160 artists participating in a plein air competition. The weather was a mixed bag, fog, mist, rain and sun which made watercolor painting a real challenge. Still, it was a fabulous week of painting throughout the town of Cedarburg, WI. There were so many interesting subjects to explore in a week!

“The Harness Maker’s House” watercolor is of the Charles Hinze House, a harness maker (circa 1860s). The view looks west past the original well pump to the rare story and a half fieldstone barn. This glimpse of a bygone era can still be enjoyed while driving down the original Green Bay Road in Historic Cedarburg.

Thank you to Ray, Sarah and Noah for being the very best hosts! I could not have had a successful week without you guys.
