Original artwork description:

One of the first paintings I created using the 'whitewashing', layering, or covering technique. This painting was all about covering my pain and grief from my father's passing. That was a really dark time in my life because I was trying to be strong for my son and for my mother and felt like I had to push my grief down or color over it so that I could function. This mixed media piece is the title piece for my 2015 solo show of the same name._x000D_ _x000D_ For paintings on canvas, the sides of the painting have been painted so no frame is needed. For those on paper, I have included a photo with a full size picture of the painting. In most cases the painting is to the edges of the paper. If there is a mat included, I have noted it somewhere within the listing. All paintings come ready to hang and have been varnished for protection._x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ All images Copyright ©2021 by Shelli Finch.

Your package will come wrapped in brown paper wrapping as well as two to three layers of bubble wrap along with an outer layer of cardboard for safety in shipping. I usually ship via USPS because I live in a smaller town in Iowa and we don’t have a dearth of shipping choices. For larger paintings, I will most likely use UPS packaging and shipping._x000D_ _x000D_ _x000D_ NOTE:_x000D_ Postage is hard to figure out before mailing. Any postage overages of +$2.00 or more will be refunded back to you._x000D_ _x000D_ International Mailing:_x000D_ Your order may be subject to import duties and taxes.
