Description
I would love to see what this old farm house looked like when it was filled with a huge farm family. It must have been a wonderful place to grow up. Is there a word for lovers of old houses? I was driving around my small town today and was stunned to see the sad disrepair of some of the older homes. Mostly huge Victorians with lots of character which must cost a fortune to heat and maintain. I live in an old house and have always wondered about the people who built it. What were their lives like...did they love it as much as I do? Were they happy? I just realized what the word for lovers of old houses is- crazy! lol Thankfully my husband agrees with me that the challenges are worth the rewards. He deserves a medal for maintaining ours and implementing all those loving improvements I dreamed up through the years.

Enjoy this amazing farmhouse painting, Bonnie! Felt the need to revisit this beauty. Brings back precious memories of our old house, barn, and sheds. We had a lot of animals, milk cows, chickens, cats and dogs. It helped feed our family of eight. I was fun when we had time to play and imagine. Love this painting of yours, Bonnie! F/L

So much love painted into this scene, Bonnie! Perfect title. The old house has so much character! I'm sure the family enjoyed not only the house but the mountains and peacefulness of this country home! Enjoy your description! Excellent! F/L
Anne Gifford
I don't have a word for lovers of old houses, either, but I certainly share the affection for them with you. The title of this painting is so appropriate. I feel like renditions of what were once beautiful buildings are extra special as they record what was. Wonderful art!
Bonnie Mason replied:
Thanks, Anne. Your work expresses your love for special places in a beautiful and unique way.

Not crazy at all! If walls could talk is perfect, I feel each house has a soul, so to speak! Such a beautiful painting with a story behind it for sure. So often I wish I would win the lottery and use some of it to redo an abandoned house in the country. Dreams!!
Bonnie Mason replied:
Yes! There's no home so beautiful as a well loved old house...IMHO. Thanks, Sharon!
Heather McFarlane-Watson
Delightful painting, Bonnie. I was raised in an old house in Winnipeg and often wondered about all the people who had lived there before - and who are living there today! Luckily it has been kept in good repair.
Kathy M Krause
Oh my gosh Bonnie! I LOVE this old farm house and scene you painted! Yes, if only old buildings could tell the story! LF

Wow, Bonnie ... this painting is just amazing ... the whole area is so familiar to me somehow that this could easily be right down the road. I'm in the Shenandoah Valley ... and there are many beauties just like this one. You have really captured the entire visual, yes, but you've also incorporated the essence ... the vibe ... the spirit. I read your description and yep ... I'm the same way ... the old imagination just gets going and before I know it, I've dreamt up a whole story to go with these dear abandoned farmhouses. I am sorry to hear about the beautiful large Victorian homes in your town. Just breaks my heart. You are blessed to have a husband who is willing to keep your own home going. It's not an easy task for sure~! l/f t and fb
Bonnie Mason replied:
Thanks so much for those kind comments and sharing, Lois. I love the Shenandoah Valley, too! I've spent some time there and hope to spend more in the future.
