Another of the bath - I am not sure if that is a date or a signature on the left again maybe someone of my many visiters can provide a clue. There is indeed one more to this set but the image was too awful even by my standards.

Part of my collection of three woodblocks purchased at an estate sale. Yes I know my images are awful and I promise one day I will do a proper job.

Maybe someone can identify this seal and tell me something about these prints?

The companion to the Lefevre below. These are both failrly small about six inches or so on a side. I started collecting nudes, but they have always seemed a bit rare to come by at least in the world of fle market art or at least in the world of what I am able to pay for art. So it is always a thrill when I make a find like this.

Most recent additions and I've still not covered all my older material. This appears to be the work of R. J. Lefevre. Lefevre was an art proffessor at the nearby University of Tennessee. He was known for a series of paintings called the Art of War depicting the horrible battles of our bloody and to my mind unessassary civil war (properly an iridentionist war not a civil war). This is a very limited edition print.

Just added to the collection now where to hang this masterpiece - signed Rocko seems to be oil on - and I love this - emory cloth. You simply must click on the image and view this enlarged.

Yes why express ones genious on expensive stretched canvas when there is emery cloth? Don't let your muse be stiffled by the expense think out of the canvase. Besides which I simply love the painting the grit gives a background of subtle sparkling essence to the work - the cup not only threatens to runeth over but goes through some sort of dimensional trauma to do so.

Not to mention the promise of the grapes fufilled in the contents of the cup. I love it I love it I love it! Say speaking of wine glasses does yours need another refill? There that's better.

Shame on me I've forgotten the artist name - a nice old lady near Venice Florida who paints for the local galeries. I'll get the name - after all that is what the edit function is for right? This is simply a very nice oil, in fact its quite nice. I can't quite remember what I paid but it was either a quarter of fifty cents, and I have a matching painting purchased for the same price!. Something is so terribly wrong when one can buy a nice oil painting into which such work and talent has been brushed for a quarter or was it fifty cents?.
