Gypsy Wagon


This one reminds me a section of an old circus or gypsy wagon that has been painted over and over and then started to peel. More whimsy than I usually do, that's for sure, but it took on a life of its own and I just followed along for the fun. The odd thing is that the one I worked on today also took me somewhere more whimsical. What's that all about? Cirque, Circus? Ah!

This just gets better and better :)
Are you going to let us in on how you achieved this effect - it looks really good. I guess its paint, but in the photo it looks like wax dripping down. Its brilliant.

It's so rich and unusual-nice. It really caught my eye.
