Peaceful Mountain River Two (The BOLD Edition!)

‘Peaceful Mountain River Two’
Acrylic on Canvas Board - 8″ x 10″
Another take on the Peaceful Mountain River, this time using bolder colors. I painted this on a canvas board as I wasn’t expecting to like it but I actually like it more than the first version I painted so now I regret not going larger! I also prefer my reflection of the colors in the sky into the water.
I submited this painting to DeviantArt and Zazzle today as a postcard and it won a ‘Today’s Best Award,’ making it my second ‘Today’s Best Award’ in two weeks! I certainly won’t complain about that!
The question is: do I sell this on Etsy or not? Since it’s an 8″ x10″ on canvas board as opposed to stretched canvas, i would imagine the interest would be even less. I also think it would have to be framed and I don’t have the money at the moment to frame it before I would try to sell it. What are the thoughts of my readers? Let me know!

This painting is incredible! I love the bold colors! It sure deserves the award.

LOVE the bold sky. It looks like the Aurora Borealis. Having the original version next to this one would be a great vignette on someone’s wall. I like the fact that both paintings touch on the theme of the brilliant sky without being identical. Each evokes a different mood.
