I’ve wanted to paint an Old Style Feed Store for some time. There are new ones that the owners have tried to give that retro look but this Old Feed Mill, Store is the real thing and it is located in Rio Vista, Texas, and going strong since 1946!. I have passed thru Rio Vista countless times and never saw this until I noticed a Church Steeple that looked old and went to check it out and
there a little out of view from the main road was this gem of a Feed Mill and Store! I changed very little other than adding the old truck and a few signs to an area by the door that has shelves filled with small products.
