I often take the long way home. The best subjects are usually found there.
A recent evening drive through Tinmouth offered me this one.

Beautiful and peaceful
Love this painting. Reminds me of my childhood.
How beautiful, This reminds me of my childhood also in northern Minnesota. Thank you again for making my Monday
This IS my childhood home…so many wonderful memories of there. Thank you for the beautiful rendition.
This one is especially lovely and evocative!
How beautiful and peaceful. God’s beauty
Sooooooo authentic of wonderful Vermont! My kind of scene! Another beautiful painting, Peter!
This is soul soothing! Just what our extensive collection needs!
This is beautiful – a beacon to come in.
Puts the Joy in winter
I grew up in West Tinmouth so this is really special to me. You do beautiful work!
Love this picture, reminds me of the times we would go to my parents camp in Tinmouth-my father always called it God’s country.
Like this very much, Peter. Beautifully composed. The receding fence line on the right, echoed by the left side foreground stubble, the diagonals of the background hills — everything leads us to rest in the light.
I certainly don’t blame you for taking the long way home! So beautiful! Thank you for sharing!
Very beautiful…..love all the details, captures the cold winter evening in VT
Your amazing talent captures Vermont at its beauty and peace! Thank you for sharing.
Outstanding work once again!
this is very nice..the Vermont that we know and love…
So relaxing and peaceful. Just a beauty.
Peter….I echo all comments…. Nature’s beauty is superb. Thank you for your skills. Cynthia
Perfection!
Looks like my aunt and uncle’s farm in Minnesota where I spent many summers enjoying life on the farm. This would be my “happy” place for sure!! What a beautiful picture!!
I just Love this painting. Vermont says ‘Winter Farm’ like no other state to me.
Thank you so much for sharing your work!
A welcome and beloved sight to all of us in Tinmouth! Thank you for sharing this beautiful rendition
I drive by this beautiful place every day on my way home. Love this so much!
Absolutely beautiful! Truly gives the feeling of a quiet, snowy evening in farm country.
You captured the evening somber mood. Cold outside, but the warmth in the barn is inviting.
Love this painting, Robert Frost, and even the title given this piece. I always look so forward to your Monday e-mail. Your talent is so inspiring! Thank you for sharing!
your comment made me laugh and recall memories of my brother, Ray. he always took ‘The Road Less Travelled’ whenever he drove us anywhere much to our protesting. I did see more of our beautiful state that way
Just beautiful! Reminds of growing up on Rte. 30 on the farm.
Tranquil and restful Thank you.
Larry, our sons and I have had the honor of working this farm for the past 16 years. Thank you, Peter, for making us look so good!!
It’s beautiful, I love having it in my view.
This is so familiar, not only because this farm is down the road from me, but because I once was a farmer, and the barn was a warm escape from the cold outside.
This is really beautiful, Peter! You can see that lots of us think so. The warmth of the barn is so inviting on a cold snowy night. Such a fine job of painting a lovely scene.
Truly Beautiful ! !
Another favorite for me.
Hi Peter, what a winter’s evening. You catch the atmosphere. And really: your true love is a snow covered landscape. Isn’t it?
My true love is always the painting I’m working on at the moment. I think thats the right answer Doris.
This painting does capture the moment. Especially the glow from the windows and the grass in the foreground has such movement!!! The fog rolling down the hill is such a typical evening in the winter. This composition is truly appealing in the sense of balance and contrast.
This painting immediately brought to my mind John 1 verse 5: “The light shines on in darkness, a darkness that did not overcome it.” Beautiful and powerful!
Absolutely gorgeous!! Your keen eyes never disappoint!
Beautiful scene, and on my late fathers birthday! His roots were Vermont, and passed his love of this beautiful state on to me!
Reminds me of the Farm my husband grew up on
Your paintings have inspired us so! We are moving from Maryland to Shelburne, Vermont. Everyone thinks we are nuts…at our age you are supposed to head to sunny Florida. Not us! Got my husband snow shoes for Christmas! Thank you for your inspiration! Vermont…Here we come!
Thank you so very much for all the support and wonderful comments. I really appreciate knowing my work is bringing a just little bit more joy into our world.
Love your work and am happy to say I have one of your originals
wonderful…thanks Peter!
Love the cozy Vermont winter glow of this painting – so happy to be a new email subscriber!
So lovely reminds me of home. I love how the light draws you in especially in this dark time of the year I can just picture my home farm in Addison with the lights beaming. Thank you!
I have to respond, along with so many others, that this painting captures something on a deeper level than usual. I’m not sure if it’s the slate gray sky, the soon approach of a winter night, the sense of cold… or if it’s the barn that seems to be drawing one to the warmth anticipated inside. I don’t know. But, this one is just quintessentially my memories of growing up in VT in the deep of winter. Thank you, Peter.
I can appreciate this beautiful snowy scene as I live in Northern Nevada , even though we have snow we don’t have the scenery like this so gorgeous .
I have seen this painting close up in person at the studio while still drying and it is gorgeous. You wont be disappointed if you have the winning bid. Great contrast of cold winter dusk and warmth of barn lights similar to Vermont scenes observed on way home from studio.
