Jonathan King, The Red Barn, acrylic, $130

Jonathan King

Ever since I can remember I have always enjoyed art. Whether it was making it or just looking at it there has been a connection. I am not sure where my love for art initially came from, but I am very grateful that I feel connected to art.

I usually stick to drawings when making art. I like to draw things that I enjoy such as my favorite characters from movies or video games. I usually copy pictures or other pieces of art to make my own.

For this piece I did everything opposite of what I usually do. This painting is done with acrylic paint, and is my first time using acrylic paint. I have only ever painted using watercolor. This is an original piece in a two point perspective. What initially inspired me to paint a barn is when a good friend of mine was wearing overalls and reminded me of a farmer.
