Frozen Lake Champlain. Oil on board. 8x10 in. This time, I tried Ampersand claybord with oil. Even though the surface of the claybord didn’t seem absorbent when I was applying gouache and casein to it, with oils it did seem pretty absorbent. The oil paints dried or rather set quickly on this surface which allowed me to apply several layers of paint, using the alla prima technique. Also, the finish of the completed painting is almost completely matte, without the usual shine of wet oil paint, which makes it very easy to photograph the artwork.

An old hay barn built in the 40s, which I painted to look as it did when newly built:
Here is a photo of the barn as it looks now:
Below are other reference photos:
I found a local building with shingles like those the barn originally had, and found a picture of a young cedar fence on the internet I used to imitate the original color of the cedar barn.
I painted this barn as a commission for someone:
Her father built this barn, and now it needs to be torn down. She wanted a picture of it the way she remembered it as a child, so she asked me to reconstruct it in a painting.
The barn was built for cows to feed at, and she explained how it was constructed:
The barn was filled to the roof with loose hay, which would be accessible at the feeding stations under the two side roofs. The walls are sloped so the pressure of the massive hay pile doesn't bow them outward. Her father climbed the ladder next to the long window going up the side of the barn to reach the top of the stack to add more or spread out the hay more evenly.
