Simple play of light and shadow

This 11 x 14 acrylic on canvas board was donated to a charity auction. Inspired by a photo of the same, I simply cleaned up some of the bits I didn't care for. (car in the drive and the like) That is the wonderful thing about being an artist, if there is something in view you don't want to look at... Well, you just paint it out! I hope the new owner likes it as much as I do.
The thing that really caught my eye was the wonderful lines created by the shadows, in contrast to the rays of sunlight. To all those new bloggers - remember to check my archives, there are more paintings than appear on the site :)
