Ranch-Way Feeds at Loveland Feed & Grain Mill (c) Ruth Soller
This aged and rusty Ranch-Way Feeds sign caught my eye in the Loveland Feed & Grain Mill. The patterns and colors of the chipped paint and weathered deterioration were challenging to capture in paint. I experimented with Golden Fiber Paste and Golden Light Molding Paste in building up the texture of the bricks. This painting will be available at Tenfold Collective in Loveland, CO, Friday July 8th from 4-9 pm during a city-wide event recognizing the Artspace Inc. agreement to purchase and renovate the historic 1891 Loveland Feed & Grain Mill into a multi-purpose space for the arts.

On our last morning in Rome we walked along the Pincio above Piazza del Popolo where we came across Villa de Medici, a summer retreat for members of the Medici family of Florence. The beautiful building had also served as Academie Nationale de France and was stunningly framed with cascading fushia bouganvilia.
