To create this artistic hybrid, I reworked a painting I had reworked before that wasn’t working… Again. I liked the black and white “Art Deco” border and decided to keep it. While working on a “Starry Night” piece, I had glanced over at an “American Gothic” piece in the studio I had also been working on and wondered what it would look like to combine the two, to have Starry Night as American Gothic’s backdrop. I thought this was a brilliant idea. Upon further research, I found out… it was. It seems that many people had done the very same thing, but not like I did.
