I like the balance of the composition of A. In choice B, my eye stays more fixed on the roof.

Erik, I love both. The weather must be getting to you. Somehow they have the same sensibilities (not realities) as Van Gogh in France and earlier in the Netherlands. MJ

I love the softness the painting invites.

"...Sunny Day" is the obvious choice here. That sky is dreamy - I think a scary witch lives in the rainy day farmhouse. Chris Koch |

I like the colors, and the impressionistic feeling. It is mysterious. Juliana |

I like sun. Did the farmer chase you with a pitchfork? -- FatJimmie

no, but his dog barked at me a lot tho!

I like both, but A puts in perspective the human-made house is placed against the canvas of nature. B is nice also but it seemed that the house was not as well in context of its surroundings, from a size / importance perspective.

Eric, they are a pair, but I do prefer A, because it is more exciting and abstract. I also like the pale blue color contradicting with the earthy red. B is clear and the colors are fresh, but A has my preference. Monique |

beautiful blend of sky B is a little too dark

B is more disturbing, so I keep looking to see why. The trees are more threatening, the red scarier. You wonder what happened in that house, compared to the other, which makes me want to go there and have a nap.

Tough choice!! I like both, the closeness to the house, and the view from across the field. Both!!
