This drawing shows three simple wooden buildings in a rural setting. The largest is a white house with small windows, next to a dark barn with an open front. In front of the barn is a smaller red shed with a sloped roof. A split-rail fence runs along the bottom, and the background is filled with green trees and bushes. The artist used soft, muted colors and kept the scene calm and quiet. The buildings look old-fashioned, almost like they’ve been there for a long time. If you like this style, check out cross-hatching to see how artists create texture with lines.
