Years ago, I had painted a canvas with a French market scene to use as a backdrop/divider for a booth at a show. It was a quickie, and not meant to be too detailed.
Here is the original. I have had it hanging in my garage, but have never really liked it. When Guncle Randy needed a French themed mural, I offered to give it to him.
But of course, that meant that I wouldn’t like it any better when I saw it at his house.
So, I spent an afternoon brightening it and adding details.
Including his Bichon, Bella, peeking out of the window.
And his address in French, on the wall.
(the sign isn’t really crooked, the canvas has a few billows, here and there that throw off the perspective in photos)
I like it better now. I think he will use it in his patio tent for a French themed dinner party or maybe to hang on the garden fence?
It is canvas and acrylic, so would be fine outdoors. But over time, could cause moisture to be trapped behind it and the fence would rot, so that couldn’t be permanent.
