Thrift Store Paintings

Like some of you out there, I like thrift store paintings but I haven't been able to use them in my mail art. Does anyone out there have any idea how to incorporate a thrift store painting with mail art?

If you want to share your finds, that would be cool too.

That's one way to do it. I think I may come up with an interesting way to cut up the painting and some how turn it into something new. I guess I just need to try.

Thanks for the suggestion.

I think I'm going to work on this in the coming days. I will for sure post some pictures if I get anything to turn out.
