Kirkner Cabin

Kirkner Cabin is an oil painting on cotton canvas. The original, measuring 24 x 18 inches, was completed in the fall of 2013, followed shortly after with prints on acid free paper.

The structure is an historical log cabin built in the 1840’s. In the 1970’s the cabin was moved and reassembled alongside New River, America’s oldest river located in Hiwassee, Virginia. Many families have gathered around its stone fireplace over the years since, passing time and enjoying the simpler days.

In painting the charming old cabin in an Autumn setting, I have captured the appealing chestnut logs and other details of the building tucked in the splendor of Fall foliage, while the vibrant leaves are reflected in the river.

You, too, can journey back into history and breathe in the fresh mountain air. Come sit on Kirkner’s quaint porches and listen to the birds sing. Delight in the river fishing and kayaking, and go hiking, biking or horseback riding to explore the woodland and rejoice in its wildlife.

Experience the Kirkner Cabin’s relaxing atmosphere, today, by contacting New River Retreat in Draper, Virginia. They offer vacation getaways not only on New River, but on Claytor Lake, New River Trail and in the Blue Ridge Mountains.
