Anatomy of a FINISHED Project!
I never did figure out what that thing is. I originally painted the box as empty. I thought it looked good and spoke to Vincent's life, but Todd says I can't mess with the original. Purist.
Whatever it is, I think it's o.k. I didn't make it look like his, mostly because I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IT WAS, but also because I tried to blend it in with the background more. Hopefully it won't take away from the focal point....unless I've just drawn your attention to it. :-) I think it'll look good in a big, dark brown frame but that'll be up to it's owner.
Now all I need to do is finish Dad's painting. No. Really. It's only been 2 years. That's not excessive, is it? 8^o
