Red Roofs

A collection of red roofed white houses in a hamlet, with a red sky, nestled in a valley.

Likely from a photographic reference. Thicker paint, a scumbled red sky and a sketchy approach to the application of the impasto on the cottage s suggests an experimental approach from Barbara in her mid years.
