The Vault Gallery

I just got out of the pool where I swim with the Masters Program. When I get in the water feels cool (these days anyway), but within minutes it seems warm. I think that is what this week will be like. later in the week I am off to england and then France. I will post next week's art from 'over there.' This week we have little birds that appeared outside sherie Drake's window early this spring before the trees had emerged from dormancy. Thank goodness for colorful little birds who remind us spring is on its way! Next week's art will be other harbingers of spring, one a painting by Leslie Hurst. And the following week the art will make the transistion to summer.

These two paintings may be purchased as a set or separately. the larger is 8" x 8" and is titled, "Early Birds." It is $250. It is a wrapped around the framing and hangs as you see it as does the second painting titled,"Snow Bird" 5 x 5 and $125. The set sells for $350. These are new, oil on canvas and signed.

April 28th and this must be the most beautiful day of the year. I am sitting at home admiring our lawn and gardens (we now have a full-time gardener - me!- and things have never looked so good.)

Each Monday I will post a some new art on this page. Check it regularly for great art and good buys.

This painting is gorgeous, a classic oak tree. It is simple and elegant. The painting is shown off in the best possible way with this stunning gold frame by Glaser frames. I bought the painting from Stan Robbins because it caught my eye; the painting is small 4" x 6", it is oil on paper and signed only on the mat board. Brad Brooks installed it in this wonderful frame adding an inner mat to highlight the art. For a simple painting we have combined forces to create a small treasure.

I debated asking more because the frame was so expensive, but I also wanted to keep the price at under $250 sooooooo...... the price for this is $245.
