Madison Windmills, 8x10"

My plan was to start another painting based on the previous one, but this photo from the same area begged me to paint it first.

For several years I had seen the windmills in the distance and was very curious as to what they looked like up close, so last year my daughter and I went to Madison county in search of them. Not only did we take lots of pictures but also fell in love with the countryside.

As a believer in renewable energy, I plan to include windmills in some future paintings. The ones here are barely visible on the left.

Lovely piece, Adriana. I look forward to seeing more windmills in the future. Passing through West Virginia one year, we saw a lot of them...I think they are so interesting and a wonderful subject. The sky is beautifully painted as well!!
