My LA Artwork

Remember when I posted about my trip to Palm Springs (two weeks ago) and said I would talk about the artwork I was traveling with the next day?  HA.  Yeah right.

Better late than never I say.

About 5 years ago (maybe closer to 6 at this point), I took a trip to LA to visit Amanda.  We did too many fun things to mention on this blog, but one of the things was to head to an Art Galley that her parents participated with.

While at this event, I ended up purchasing my very first piece of actual art.  It was beautiful and was not that expensive.

Unfortunately, it's been so long I don't really remember who the artist is or what the back story was.  But it's still beautiful.  It's oil on glass.

Here it is.

The picture doesn't do it the best justice, but I tried to show what it looks like with the sunlight coming through it.

Well, because it was on glass, we all agreed that it was probably best if it gets shipped to me and I don't carry it on the plane with me.

Fast forward 5+ years, several unsuccessful attempts to get someone to ship it, and well.... now it is in my hands.

Special thanks to Amanda's family for loving in and holding it for me.
