Most of my working life has been spent in libraries, but in my younger days I trained and worked as a nurse. Now I have given up paid employment to cultivate the art of not working, and save my life at the same time. Life isn't always easy, but it's what we've got. Carpe diem!

My new painting
I've just hung this painting on the wall between my bookcase and my fireplace. It looks great. I admired the lemons when I was visiting the artist months ago, and he very generously turned up on Christmas Day with the finished painting as a gift for me. Not to everyone's taste maybe but I love it. For some reason most of his paintings feature food in some form which is possibly why I like them.

Well I for one think it's lovely!
ReplyDeleteBright and colourful, which I love. AND there is blue in there too... even better! lol
I love it. The colors and style would go great in my living room. So I'm assuming we have similar tastes and decor in our homes.
ReplyDeleteI love it too - and I think you have a lovely friend to give you a painting! :-)
ReplyDeleteHello Judith
ReplyDeleteI have just found your blog (via Chris H's). You are doing paleo!!! Fantastic... so hard to find a fellow blogger who is low carb/paleo and I see you even read the same info that I do - Fathead, Mark Sissons etc. I look forward to following your blog.

Great pic. It reminds me of the painting on the wall in 'Frazier'; do you know that one?
ReplyDeleteHappy new year judith
ReplyDeleteOh and I love that picture too by the way!! How lucky to have it given to you.
ReplyDeleteThanks folks. It's a very big painting and takes up most of the space on that wall. I have two other paintings by the same artist but they are much smaller.
ReplyDeleteCro, your comment struck a chord. I remember that painting. Off to Google to see if I can track it down.
Certainly to my taste - great piece of artwork. Well done to your artist friend and lucky you!
