 Small Painting from Hudson, Massachusetts

Hudson Massachusetts is a town that recently won an award for its vibrant downtown shopping district.* 

A couple of years ago longtime business Vic's Barbershop moved to a new locatioin and to record its original appearance, I painted a detailed portrait of the original location of Vic's Barbershop from a snapshot (https://assabetarts.blogspot.com/2021/06/barber-shop-has-been-in-downtown-hudson.html).

Since then I have painted several small watercolors scenes from life in this town.

Below, some horse paddocks and a red barn near River Road in Hudson with the Assabet River.

This watercolor is 6x4 inches. My favorite part was masking out the fence boards using thin tape.
