Love the paint brushes and crackle finish on the frame. Stunning. And the treatment you gave those ovals for the numbers ... wow (again). A also love the fact that you don't waste paint. The monoprint will be fantastic addition to another project. Beautiful hearts too. Just a great piece for this challenge. Hope to play along.
