HAPPY NEW YEAR New mixed media painting !

Original painting with doors and windows looking into the past and the future. I have used images from my own personal history to create this mixed media piece. A photograph of my parents at the beach in Florida in 1940, a picture of the ship "Excalibur" that my great grandmother took to Europe in the 1930's when she was 80 years old, a map of France, an old postcard from a long gone friend, a page from an old dictionary, an exposition poster, a rubber stamp of a palm tree, an armchair to contemplate it all in, and lots of colors and textures in acrylic paint.

This piece is 24 x 30 inches x 1 1/2 inches deep. The edges are painted black and it is wired and ready to hang. Coated with a clear acrylic varnish for protection.

It can be purchased in my Etsy shop.
