Timeworn Home

I've used this wooden shaped house to try out various paint techniques I learnt from Andy Skinner's paint technique course http://andyskinnerorg.blogspot.co.uk/  (check out his blog)
The roof has a copper patina and peeled paint
The rusty sign holds a chipped paint sign  The background is textured with paste and paint with lots of chipped and crackled paint on the frame

Lots of fun textures and finishes, looks fab! I'm doing Andy's Book of Secrets course at the end of this month - looking forward to it!

Looks amazing, Pat. I do like a bit of rusting and ageing (except on myself LOL).
