There's some fun, thick paint gooped on top of some german text - beautiful in its own right. Hope you enjoy both the close-up and the entire piece. available for sale at The Barn Swallow (located West of Charlottesville, VA) - their site: <br /><br />http://www.thebarnswallow.com/<br />~Leslie<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2374346894193517301-3908703734496929090?l=sassypaints.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>SassyPAINTShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15883201518305562231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2374346894193517301.post-26357501325354204682007-09-18T11:48:00.001-07:002007-09-18T11:58:44.568-07:00<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hsXXVbSMZz4/RvAfpXv3JFI/AAAAAAAAADE/o2aIAEzsXNM/s1600-h/DSC00669.JPG"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hsXXVbSMZz4/RvAfpXv3JFI/AAAAAAAAADE/o2aIAEzsXNM/s320/DSC00669.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5111620372675372114" /></a><br />layering and letting the underneath show through...what's better than that?? 4x6 $125<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2374346894193517301-2635750132535420468?l=sassypaints.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>SassyPAINTShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15883201518305562231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2374346894193517301.post-32561650394095905462007-09-10T12:22:00.000-07:002007-09-10T12:45:51.012-07:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hsXXVbSMZz4/RuWaDEUe-iI/AAAAAAAAAC0/0KfmaFPc7pQ/s1600-h/DSC00670.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_hsXXVbSMZz4/RuWaDEUe-iI/AAAAAAAAAC0/0KfmaFPc7pQ/s320/DSC00670.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5108658729811638818" /></a><br />This painting started with a collaged bit of French text.
