"Truth and reality in art do not arise until you no
longer understand what you are doing and are
capable of but nevertheless sense a power that
grows in proportion to your resistance."

Henri Matisse

Spring Barns

While there was still a little bit of snow in the shadows, the open fields were bathed in sunshine with long afternoon shadows cast across them. A hint of red buds could also be seen atop the trees. With the strong sun and lack of foliage, the contours of the mountains were very clear.
