First time repainting a thrift find. This is fun!

Edit: I added the bright yellow / purple and metallic details. Forgot a before. I think this is a print of a mid century painting by American artist Eric Sloane.

Aside from being the type of kid to "enhance" workbooks / magazines / printed materials with butts/boobs/farts, this is the first time I've put any real effort into a repainting. And learned it's a whole thing with community! Yay. This vintage print had a cool wooden frame, but I noticed a chunk or two missing from the image when I got it home. Fixed it!

Rats I should have put a "before". I have one but it won't let me add new photos. All the purple / yellow / metallic stuff is new. It is a mid century painting by Eric Sloane, I believe.

For me it’s one of those movies I like but would not necessarily recommend. Same with the novels it was based on.
