The Sky (Inspired Door Series)

This is a reclaimed door I found in the chicken coop....completely black and unrecognizable.
It has fasteners from a long mirror on the front, seen here as black specks on the painting.

In this detail you will notice the door knob, now broken. The brass is so beautiful. I added a touch of gold to the edge of the cloud (seen here top, center) as if the light from the brass was reflecting in the sky.
Here is a mirror fitting.
This detail is the original cloud composition that made me fall in love with this sky. Doesn't it take your breath away? A door through the clouds....from this to that... unknown place...
I left the hinges in their original condition.
And here is the back of the door. I left it just as it was, but clean.
