Winter Schoolhouse - miniature
Acrylic on canvas, 3.5x2.5
sold |
These old schoolhouses are certainly icons from days gone by. Once, they dotted the landscape of our rural areas. Now, they are seldom seen, often falling into disrepair, only to be torn down. Today, I am painting this on a very small scale - only 3.5 x 2.5 inches. I have floated the thin acrylic over the surface, and dropped in more color, as with watercolors. To top off the snow in the landscape, I mixed molding paste with titanium white acrylic, and spread it on with a palette knife - a little tricky on a painting the size of a business card! Painting number 719 in 719 days :)
