Country Home 11x14 oil on linen....day 12, 30 in 30

Country Home
11x14 oil
 Day 12, 30 in 30 

This red country home and  surrounding acreage belong to our Sons best friend Russell, and his wife Laurie.
It sits on a hilltop with incredible 360 view for miles in NW Arkansas.
He and our son are both hero's in my book. Our Son is a Paramedic, Engineer/Firefighter.
Russell is also a firefighter and they worked together for several yrs. at a local FD.
While our Son moved to a different FD here in  
NW Arkansas, they remain great friends.
Recently, while at his home,. I realized I just had to paint their home and setting.
I gifted this to them just last week.:)

I would love to hear from you, and welcome your comments....Leslie
