Mixed Media Painting on Paper of Cozy Houses in Hilly Landscape Nauyat carving and snaps closed nicelyI pulled this one out of a deep pile of old letters and clippings and assorted odds and ends, and really loved its combination of looseness and specificity, especially love the little white houses with red chimneys nestled cozily amid rolling hills. Clearly a specific place with the directional key at upper left, and definitely with some age, executed on paper in what I think is a combination of oil paint maybe gouache too, I'm not entirely sure. 10 7
