I miss grain elevators. They're starting to disappear.

I love it...

I absolutely love your watercolor portraits of ordinary, everyday scenes like this. *instant fav*

The detail in the buildings is somehow both realistic and impressionistic, and the cars parked on the street can be a nice period detail in some of them. It's not just a static image of a school, a factory or a street; there's a sense of life going on in them that makes them feel warm and familiar. Furry or not, the fellow riding his bike past this scene is a perfect example.

There's not a flag in sight, and yet, this, to me, is a classically American image.

*silly art-nerd fanboy rave done* :)

I don't know how I missed replying to this comment, but thank you. Really appreciate it.

I've been on Flickr for decades; rural scenes like this are among my favorites.

Grain elevators. They were a staple to having a strong workforce and how food is produced and stuff. The state I live in is what ranks #1 in supplying food for the planet. We would even see them when driving through rural areas of the country that have businesses here and there.

Oh my! This is one of the best paintings I've seen in a good while. I tried my hand with watercolor and I suck at being consistent with the colors. You did an absolute amazing job.

Thank you man. And good to hear from you again
