The stunning work of Joe Swec goes unnoticed on the rolling countryside of Londonderry, Vermont. As a picturesque barn nestles at the top of a hill, American painter Joe Swec displays his classic work above the barn's doors. The motif Swec decides to paint includes two quilt-like stars which feature rainbow coloring to enable a vibrant speech among the dim, quiet countryside.
A resurgence of older art frames has began to find its way back onto the modern artwork arena. Swec has traveled across the American outback, through Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Iowa, to portray the work he has done on a bigger scale. Joe Swec is a talented artist who captures the hearts of the inhabitants of the village with every barn he brings a paint brush to.
