"Gold Rush"
After I ran this through processing, it reminded me of something out of the Old West. Special thanks to the very talented Leah Highland for sharing your texture info! You’re awesome. :)
Douzy, at your request here is that info. :)
It’s the largest online collection of FREE (free!!!) textures
in the world. You can download up to 15 megs per day, so I’d
recommend saving the smaller versions, and then resizing them later. ;)
Once again, thanks Leah!
"Gold Rush" belongs to the following groups:

This reminds me of a piece of a old wall, I expect to see a mouse poke its head out of the hole in the skirting board. Love the texture and originality. Superb work.
