"Ghost House"

Deep in the woods rests this once proud house, scarred by the years, shutters askew, illuminated by a shaft of moonlight that filters through the dense forest canopy... and an odd light in an upstairs window.

Let us, for a minute, absorb the mouldering aura of the old house, witness as it has been -- for more than a century -- to ceaseless comings and goings, births, deaths, joy and sorrow, happiness and tragedy. Now it stands deserted, no longer loved by the living, lonely and forgotten. As the forest inexorably creeps in to reclaim its own, will the the house and its ghosts mourn its melancholy, solitary end?

This painting employs a somewhat impressionistic technique I've previously used, particularly for my popular subject, The Homecoming. Several hidden figures lurk in the shadows.

Ghost House has been meticulously scanned from my original watercolor and digitally printed with fade-resistant inks on specially treated heavyweight watercolor paper. I personally inspect your print, sign it, slip it into its protective clear plastic envelope, and include with it a page of helpful framing hints from The Haunted Studio.
