Another ACEO size (2.5" x 3.5") original that just blows my socks off is "One Was Left". Creepy name aside (are those hawks in the background??) what a sweet and effortless-looking, yet crazy-good pen and watercolor sketch.

Finally, here is the thing about rules: LITERALLY, they are made to be broken. If not for the idea that it may be broken, a rule would not even exist, right?
With that bit of sophistry aside, let's examine "Chicken House Road", which breaks a couple of rules. For instance, it does not feature a chicken, and costs more than $20. What is it even doing here? Well, hear me out: this painting features a chicken house, plus it features the WORD 'chicken.' (I love words; I am just as happy to feature the word 'chicken' as an actual chicken.) And it is just barely over $20, coming in at $22. It's my blog, and my bathroom, and I decide "Chicken House Road," with its wild splashy tree, is the rule-breaker.
