Acrylic on wooden canvas, 2005.

Just for practice. ;)

This took 10 hrs, give or take a few. Mostly, because I kept changing my mind about things... it's also distracting to have numerous vehicles drive by and blast their horns (I was close to the main road).

This is my aunt and uncle's furniture business, with their house to the side, in the background. My mom's family grew up there when it used to be a farm. The barn was converted into the store many many years ago. And incidentally, the house used to be haunted.

I really like the vibrance of the colors set in there...it gives a heightened sense of realism, almost reminds me of a frame from 'Waking Life'...

Thank you so much for the your praise! I felt vaguely like this was ok, more crappy than not... but it makes me feel better knowing someone else appreciates it. I'm my own worst critic.

Yep...around 10.

Thanks!
