Broken Box Landscape

I found a broken plywood box on the side of the road and liberated it like the great eco hoarder I am.
The sun was finally out so I took the opportunity to head outside with my paints and put a coat on it. Well... a couple hours and a margarita later and it's turned into a landscape of sorts. It's not finished quite yet but I thought I'd put it up here anyway. Happy Springtime peoples.
