This gives me great ideas for new paintings.  Instead of recreating a distressed surface, I can paint one that already exists.  These paintings made me remember a painting I did almost 20 years ago in Don Crow's class.  I painted an old wooden screen door with a latch.  I'm very excited about exploring this idea.
