At the Farm. Glenorchy. Sth Island. N. Z.

I just couldnt drive past this scene. I was driving around looking for a subject and the time was getting on. This one stopped me in my tracks, everything was all there for the composition,so i got this painting done just as the sun disappeared behind the mountains. I was pretty happy with the results,it was worth stopping for. This would look great in a beautiful frame and hanging in a lovely room. I used oils on canvas on board for this painting.
