Artist Reply: the actual painting that this piece emanates from is the watercolor series20 14 which is posted on this site. This is a digital composition of hand painted elements. As to how long it took me to paint series20 14, well, I don't really know because I purposely don't keep track or pay attention. Once many years ago I sold an oil painting (4' x 4') for $650. Back then i paid attention kinda as to the time invested. When i figured it out I think I made about $3 an hour. That was the last time I paid any attention. Love from Wisconsin.
