Gimmelwald, a tiny village high in the Swiss Alps, inspired "Swiss Hostel." We stayed in the home of a local family, the parents being the only two school teachers in town. A huge glacier, just outside our bedroom window, glistened as it loomed above us providing a breathtaking view. There were no eating establishments save the Mountain Hostel which served great pizza. Cows grazed on the hillsides, the bells around their necks tinkling when they moved. Picturesque chalets, adding color to the beautiful and peaceful landscape, produced a scene right out of "Heidi."

The Old Mill Study, Barbara Haviland

#mill,#water,#building,#11x14,#BarbaraHavilandFineArt.com This painting was part of a study. We had the photo and I painted it then watched the demo. I always do that. I like to change my painting up a bit. It is painted on a hardboard panel that has canvas adhered to it. I have used this method for years. I don't care for the spring of a stretched canvas. Thanks for viewing my art ~~Barbara Available GALLERY INFO Barbara Haviland Fine Art 1579 County Road 1010 Woodville, Texas 75979 409-332-0141 Website
