Ooooh, I love the lettering! And it has a Chinese brush feel to me, which is really satisfying. I might try using some two-buck chuck in my next painting to add a bit of a bacchanal touch. So cool!

Very creative! Peter, you really know how to “think out of the box”! It was fun to find one of the thieves looking out of the zero! I love it!!!
