Many Ohio barns are painted with this bicentennial logo. Ohio bicentennial painter, Scott Hagan, sketched and painted each logo by hand. By Sept. 2002 the artist had completed his five year mission of painting the logo on at least one barn in each of the 88 counties.

Lovely barn and logo. I can not imagine painting all those barns and logos by hand. Great post and photo.

This is a wonderful barn...what a job to paint the logo on at least one barn in each county. Wonder how long it took to paint each one?
What a super project! Any thoughts of going around to all 88?
That's a lot of painting! This one is a beauty!
This is a pretty one. It would be fun to see all that he painted
I've seen a lot of these.
I like the stone foundation of this one and those wooden doors/windows.
Lovely shot Carol!

That's quite a goal and I'm amazed that Hagan actually painted that many!
That's really cool! Love to see barns decorated with this kind of stuff.
Very nice! Hopefully they will publish a book with all the barns he painted.
