Awhile back I painted these bricks for a challenge of "All In A Row" and I really worked on the texture, impasto, using thick paint, trying to make it look like a brick and mortar wall. But who wants to buy a picture of a wall? So I added the cat silhouettes and finally sold it thru my Daily Paint Works site, www.pennyleestewart.com. It was done in acrylics on an 8x10 canvas board. Not an ATC. LOL.
