ORDINARY GRAIN FACILITY

MS18-003.5 TRANSPARENT DRAWINGWe are away for a few days, so I thought a travel related post of an ordinary grain facility would be fun.

While driving thru the hinterlands of Washington State some months ago, a grain silo complex caught my eye.  It was rather ordinary.  Slamming on the brakes of the rental car, I quickly hopped out and snapped a photo with my phone.

It’s not like I have not seen a grain processing facility before.  They are ubiquitous around where I live.  Yet there was something interesting about the composition of the forms.  I’ve learned that when the little voice in your head says, stop the car and take the photo, then that is what needs to be done.

There is not time to analyze if what you are looking at is truly worthy.  Just take the photo, hop back in the car, floor it (it is a rental car, after all) and then if you are motivated to draw the composition later while looking at the photo, then that’s great.

And if you are not, then nothing was really lost, except maybe a bit more wear and tear on the rental car.
