I always look forward to your work. This piece is unusual for you, isn't it? Long landscape in oils? As a barn lover also, and appreciator of expressionism, I like it. Got a lot of bold colors in it. The murky sky makes me think a storm might be brewing - one of those days when the sun is vivid against the sky. My only critique is that the barn seems done with a bigger brush than the rest, so its doesn't have much detail. Maybe needs some sharper edges to keep it from being so soft. That's probably it - darker darks, esp inside the barn. Maybe some darker shadows in the foreground as well.

Thank you Gail for your comment . I think you are right about darker shadows in the foreground . I will try it and let you know . Gerard

my only critique is that I kinda feel like the fence remnants could use just a little more definition and contrast, being that they're in the foreground.
