Hi everyone!

Working in my whimsy houses journal today I go back to my folk art roots!

I'm trying to find all sorts of whimsical houses to paint and came across this image during a google search and decided I would have to paint it!

First though I had to trace it and transfer it on the page as there was no way on this earth I was going to do it justice if I drew it!

Then it was just having so much fun adding colour and detail to it!
