These are abandoned silos from the Latah County Grain Growers...across the street from us. There is a debate over whether or not to raze them for new development. They are kind of an iconic landmark here...it would be a shame to see them go. I say call 'em sculpture and leave 'em be...kind of like the old barns and haysheds around Crested Butte. No new building is going to bend light around like these guys.

Catalyst
I am using this blog as a catalyst, to inspire me to paint every day. There are forms, compositions and color juxtapositions everywhere i look, provided that i take the time to do so. So if you see that i haven't posted a painting in several days, leave me a comment deriding me for my laziness and lack of artistic conviction. I have no excuse not to put brush to canvas, regardless of the subject matter around me. I hope you enjoy the results.
