"Beauty and the Beast" - SOLD


This painting, Beauty and the Beast, was hanging at Haven Hospice in Gainesville, FL and it sold. While I am very pleased to have sold a painting I will miss this one.
I will be celebrating our 26th Wedding Anniversary and my birthday this weekend and I hope all of you have a great weekend too.

Very nice composition, I love the contrast between the delicate flower and the old rusty barbed wire.

I remember that one as being so delicate for containing barbed wire!

Congratulations to you two for your 26th anniversary, and to top that off with your birthday all in one weekend! Happy birthday dear Vickie, happy birthday to you! I was singing that last part, could you hear my fine voice?

Jane said...

Congratulations on the sale, and the anniversary! Great barbed wire.

Thank you Krista, Deb, Susan and Jane. Two of my favorite things to paint are flowers and rust so maybe that is why I liked this painting so much. Thanks for singing the birthday song Susan, music to my ears - lol.

Vicki, you are always giving to others; this time, I would be very honored if you accepted from my site the Kreativ Blogger Award that I awarded you.

Vicki Greene said...

Thank you Christiane for the award. Oh now you are going to make me think......

Wonderful juxteposition of rough edges and soft petals :) Congrats on your Anniversary, your Birthday, and your Sale!! Whew! What a weekend!
I just saw that you have already received the Kreativ Blogger award (from another blogger's site), but wanted you to know I, too, think you are very creative and passed one on to you. You don't have to do this twice, though (fun to know a couple of people thought of you when they thought of passing this one, though, eh?)

Vicki Greene said...

Thank you so much Rhonda!

Vicki, I'm sorry I'm late to wish you a Happy Birthday, and I hope it was truely Happy!

This paintin is just gorgeous and I know how you feel when one of your fav paints goes away but you must focus on the happiness it will bring to those that see it everyday, aren't you proud of yourself?
I'm of you because you're working so well!!!

Vicki Greene said...

Thank you Loredana for the good wishes. I have had a wonderful birthday and anniversary. I am very happy to have sold a painting and I was in Gainesville today and it looks like I have sold another one. I will wait until they offically notify me before posting it.
