North Fork

Thank you, jadeast. I will hopefully try to do a painting of this scene soon.

Thank you, blossom. I will try to do a painting of this scene soon.

Thank you very much, naturelover. Will try to do a painting of it soon.

Yes. It is lovely here in other seasons too. Thanks for your compliment, Bob.

Thank you, Gary. It was very cold and very windy too!!!

Thank you, AngieM. I will go back there and take more photos-but will pick a warmer day. Was very cold and windy that day!

Thank you, Joanne. I guess the valley hadn’t lost the Autumn color completely like the mountain range had.

Thank you Ckeefer! Thank you too for introducing me to this area and having a plein air session here. Am glad you joined Red Bubble and hope you will post some of your beautiful landscape paintings.

Thank you, NautilusBlue!!! Hope you will visit the Blue Ridge Mountains some day. There is a lovely and scenic road that goes through them for maybe 350 mi or so called the Blue Ridge Parkway. The road has a speed limit of about 45 mph and no billboards or commercial trucks. It is very popular for tourists and sightseers.
PS-I found that I posted this as an add comment rather than reply to sender so sorry it is a little late getting to you.

Thank you, David. I really appreciate your comment. It was very cold and windy that day but the light was interesting so a good day for photographing.

Thank you, Wayne. It was cold and windy that day with blowing snow but was a good day for photographing.

Thank you, Darcygirl. I really enjoy finding peaceful looking farm scenes.

Thank you Chekuz. SW Virginia has beautiful Blue Ridge scenery too! Lots of mountain farms and narrow country roads.

Thank you Di. It was in a lovely and peaceful looking mountain valley.

THese barn “guilts”/paintings have become popular in the North Carolina mountains in the last few years and the idea did originate from the Amish paintings in Indiana, OH, and PA.

Thank you, Donna! It hasn’t been winter here for very long, but I am already tired of it and ready to see Spring colors!

Thank you, Tibby. Don’t you just love our NC mountains?

Thank you very much Kristina!!!

Thank you very much JeffeeArt4u. It is a lovely valley.

Thank you for such a nice compliment.

Thank you very much, Ellen. THis is a real honor to be featured.

Thank you Tibby. THis isn’t too far from your area.

Thank you Lois. The weather can be great in the valleys and 10-15 degrees lower temperature a few miles up on the mountains. On a clear day, the Blue Ridge Parkway can be seen along the ridges of those mountains.

Thank you Carol. It looked like a wonderful place to have a farm.
