October Farm Oct 14, 2019
Wouldn’t it be nice to slow down time in October?
There’s just so much beauty to savor and paint.
Alas, her fleeting nature is part of the appeal.

Thank you for your time, your humor and your painting insights. Until next time……….Be well!

Peter, watching you turn a blank canvas into a beautiful painting is inspiring. I really enjoy recieving ‘A day in Vermont’ every Monday.

Oh Dear Peter.. this painting makes me ache with wonderful memories growing up across from my Grandparents’ farm in New England. October always makes me homesick for days gone by. Thank you!
Thanks Claudia!
makes me want to try watercolors. beautiful country barn scene
Thanks Gail! This one is oil…but it looks like watercolor when I start with a very wet turpentine wash.
Not only did I enjoy that video but my husband
at age 86 was completely taken with it!!
We were home this past weekend for a wedding a

I’m a photographer, but after watching this lovely video I want to at least try painting! Living in the NEK the inspiration is all around all year long. Absolutely love the textures that result from your artistic brush, Peter! Kindest regards, Patti P., Charleston, NEK
Thanks Patti, I love the NEK!
I think this was the best video ever, and truly love the finished product, may have to try to paint something in Alabama. God bless you. You make Mondays special.
Thanks Nora!
I live in Southern NJ and spent last week in the North East Kingdom at the Danville Restaurant and Inn. The weather was perfect and it was peak foliage season. My two brothers and I saw scenes like this on every back road that we traveled. I didn’t have the time to stop by your studio and never wanted the week to end. The scenery was stunning and I love the hospitality of Vermonters. Your painting takes me back to last week but I especially loved your video with the added views from a drone. Simply Wonderful!
Thanks Randy, so glad to hear you had a good week!
Thank you for sharing that process with us, Peter. I loved watching it, and love the painting as well!
Thanks Rosemary!
I’m not surprised this has already sold. It is a beautiful painting, and the video brought it to Life for all of us! Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Pam!
thanks for taking us to the woods…
your way of explaining things always gets me thinking
Thanks Christine!
Lovely spot…and beautiful time. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Marilyn!
First video I have seen of you painting. Very inspiring and hope you make many more.
Thanks Patty!
So beautiful! And thanks for the video – was just what I needed to watch after a long day at work! Very interesting to watch the process!
Thanks Carol!
Ah, Peter – what to say – only you do my heart good – thank you – Bless you !!
Thanks Conni!
Dear Mr Huntoon I just wanted to say how much I admire your work. Watercolors have always intrigued me and I’m in awe and amazement of your work. Although I’ve never been to Vermont I’ve always felt a draw to the area like my soul belongs there. I hope to some day make it there.
Thanks Barb! As mentioned above, this one is oil, but I know it looks a lot like watercolor when I start.
Wow, so beautiful, all of it including the video. I was so fascinated watching you paint & your technique was so interesting! Thank you for doing this video and sharing it! Totally in awe…
What a beautiful painting which says “VERMONT” I, like you, wish that the month of October was more than a month….maybe two or three before the Winter really starts to step in. Thank you! Susan
Lovely, I could watch this for hours I think. Oil on canvas? Thanks for sharing. Arlene
My artist friend wants to know what medium you used in this October ‘19 barn painting…beautiful
Just got home from work and watched your video, perfect way to relax. Thank you so much for all your beautiful paintings can’t wait to visit Vermont.

With every season that passes, you get better and better!
Pete I like this painting ,even more if foreground wasn’t so “plain” maybe more wildflowers going to seed like goldenrods, asters, etc?!
What a beautiful painting and by the way that is our farm and you surely did an amazing job capturing its beauty !!! Thank you !!!
I didn’t want this video to end!!! Such talent ♡ I may have to order a print to add to my Peter Huntoon collection! Beautiful video production too!
Thx Peter!
This painting is of my wife’s grandfather’s farm and is known locally as the Maxwell Farm…it’s no longer active, but the memories linger on. Thank you…we’ve just ordered a print because it has great meaning to us.
