Description

Xenia Ohio Farm 2 Painting by P. Buckley Moss

Content & Subject

Xenia Ohio Farm 2 Painting by P. Buckley Moss is a hand-signed original watercolor painting from the Moss Painting Collection and Moss Historic Landmarks Collection. This never printed, one-of-a-kind work of art offers an intimate glimpse into Moss’s deep appreciation for local heritage and American architecture.

This rare original, Xenia Ohio Farm 2 Painting depicts a historic red-brick farmhouse in Xenia, Ohio, framed by a network of graceful winter trees and crossed by a rustic bridge in the foreground. A horse-drawn wagon passes along the quiet country road, lending the scene a sense of time and motion—a bridge between eras. Moss’s Xenia Ohio Farm 2 Painting is masterful: the layers of trees, structure, and soft sky evoke both nostalgia and reverence for the landscape’s history.

Xenia Ohio Farm 2 Painting is especially significant because Moss often created multiple versions of her regional landmark scenes. When painting for special gallery releases, she sometimes painted one version for printing and another—like this one—that remained unprinted, giving collectors the rare opportunity to own a Moss original that tells a parallel story.

Since Xenia Ohio Farm 2 Painting is untitled, the buyer will have the special honor of naming the piece, deepening its connection to personal memory or place.

Style & Technique

Moss’s folk-art watercolor technique is fully realized in the stunning Xenia Ohio Farm 2 Painting composition. She combines the architectural precision of the brick home with her signature fluid brushwork and textural layering. The soft, misty sky contrasts beautifully with the rich earthy tones of the buildings and the stark silhouette of the foreground trees, creating a feeling of timelessness and depth.

Her masterful use of negative space allows the viewer’s eye to move naturally from the tree branches to the farmhouse, then to the distant horse and wagon. The result is both painterly and poetic—a reflection of Moss’s ability to convey narrative through landscape.

Mood & Inspiration

The mood of Xenia Ohio Farm 2 Painting is reflective and serene, yet alive with history. Moss often found her inspiration in real places that carried emotional or communal meaning. By revisiting local landmarks like this one, she celebrated the stories of small towns and the people who shaped them.

Xenia Ohio Farm 2 Painting reflects her belief that art could preserve memories, evoke gratitude, and offer a sense of belonging. For Moss, each brushstroke was a way to “say something” about the heart of a place—and Farm in Xenia Ohio 2 does just that.

The Magic of Owning an Original Artwork

There is something undeniably powerful about standing before an original work of art. Every brushstroke, every layer of paint, every subtle detail carries the hand, heart, and intention of the artist. Unlike a print, which can be duplicated and shared, an original is one-of-a-kind: a singular creation that exists nowhere else in the world.

To own an original is to hold the very moment of its creation, to feel the presence of the artist, and to experience the depth, texture, and energy that can never be fully captured in reproduction.

An original artwork is more than decoration; it is a legacy piece. It carries prestige, value, and a story that becomes part of your own. Collectors often describe the experience as intimate, a relationship with the artist and their vision, while also knowing they are investing in culture, creativity, and something that will endure
