The Maine House


This was painted from a photo on my dear friend, Ann's, blog site Hill Country House.  It's mixed media, and as it was drying, the alcohol based ink started to bleed through.  Hmmmm.  I went back to a few other mixed media paintings I'd done and noticed the same thing had happened on some, but not all of them.  How weird.   I don't know if it's the particular colors of ink that bleed, or maybe the brand of oil paint over the ink.  But I like it anyway... it's different.

This painting like your other paintings draw me in.... So visually interesting. I love the texture and the feel of this painting.
It appears the ink was a happy accident.
Wonderful!
