Well, I am definately not a "closet" anything, I wear the world on my sleeve. But this in fact was a painting I did on a old sliding, closet door which I saved from a house. Notice the pull handle at the top? When I say that I "saved" it, I imply that its much better off in its current state. Hah! So, this was done for my super cool sister-n-law Michelle H. Its quite large and OH SO HEAVY (right Jimmy?) Not sure of the exact measurements but approx. 6ft by 4ft? hmph. Anyhow, Michelle and her husband Jimmy have a love for Venice. They honeymooned there. In the lower right I constructed a very inacurate, exaggerated panoramic rendition of the canals, with some of their actual pictures. On the lower left there is a saying that says, "and they watched us from above......." I finished it all off with one of my favorite details, copper cut tacks. As always.
all love.
