Finally...Saturday! You'd Think That It Being The Weekend I'd Get To Rest. Nope. While I Didn't Get Up Any Earlier Than Any Other Day, My Day Was Busy Busy Busy And Culminated In A Visit To My Booth At The Antique Mall Of Creve Coeur. Status: Chesty Delivered.

While out running around this early afternoon (about as close as I get to morning) getting some errands done I managed to sneak a quick look through the local Goodwill and found not one, but TWO great sofa size vintage modern paintings.  One's even a legendary Van Gaard!

I still get tons of hits on a previous couple of posts concerning Lee Reynolds and Van Gaard Studios

with readers wondering what their particular painting is worth.  I tried to answer that question before

getting asked in the text of the post but I'm pretty sure that some folks just won't read.  ::shrug:: 

That's all they're getting.  That said, hey looky...A Van Gaard Studios sofa size painting!  These big

vintage modern style paintings are becoming harder and harder to come by these days.  I was just

lamenting this fact last evening and suddenly, Bam...a pair show up at the thrift!

This one I can't make out the "signature", but it sure is a gorgeous piece.  I'm just loving the bold

color.  And it's Paris...well, at least it's France.  OK, I think it's France.  There's some French writing

on some of the buildings.  I mean, I guess it could be Canada...right?  Probably not.  Heck, it might

just be this intersection in gay Paris.  Who knows.  What I am positive about it that these two are

nicely filling the space vacated by a set of Curtis Jere autumn leaves that have recently found a new

home.  Stuff be moving down there in Creve Coeur!
