There is nothing more peaceful and inviting than a century farm along a lonely highway.
I found this one to be as pleasing a sight as ever I have seen. I stopped, took out my camera, and began shooting pictures from all angles to make sure I could recall the feeling I had, at the farm, and use it to inspire me when the feelings needed to flow from the brush to the canvas.
I have often passed by that farm near Westmeath and always meant to stop in and say hello to the strangers living there, but some how my foot wanted to stay on the excellerator and keep on going. Why is it we always pass by the things we want to do, as though drawn on by some great magnet? I guess we need some mystery in our lives. |
