One of my business partners painted this sign on the side of his house to honor a former neighbor. (the story is too long to repeat here).

I thought it would be fun to memorialize this in miniature, and he cut me a stencil of artwork on his Cricket. Definitely the smallest thing he has ever done.

The hay barn became the canvas for the sign.  I sealed the paint with a layer of dull cote and followed that with some chipping medium. The tape and stencil lifted some of the paint from the chipping medium,  but not so bad I couldn't touch it up some and add drop shadows. It is all a start. We will let this dry and work it over some next week.
