Story 

Just outside of my hometown of Yadkinville, stands an old rundown building made of native field stone. When driving by one day a few years ago just after a big snow, I could not help but notice this little building nestled under a big Oak tree in a pasture. Each yellow-brown rock was delicately dusted with the flakes of our first winter snow. Then there was the little white board door with it's oversized hinges and old rusty nails. Many times, I had passed by this scene never really noticing it's quaint beauty.

Later that winter, I was at an arts and antiques show in Richmond, Virginia where I saw an antique display with the little sleigh featured in this painting. Unfortunately, the antique dealer was using it for display only. It wasn't for sale. I mentioned that I had the perfect scene to place it in for a painting. He was very understanding and graciously offered to let me take several pictures of it. Except for the snow, it was basically displayed as you see with sticks of kindling, bright red apples and boughs of pine. Adding the big pine wreath with it's apples of red was just the final touch for this country art, holiday scene.

This print and my print "The Meeting," when framed as a pair, make a great impact on any wall.
