Last Guest Made This Wonderful Painting

This lovely couple came to my cabin after finding it on Instagram, and in the review the woman wrote that her husband spent the afternoons painting outside in the blueberry field.  I wrote and asked her if I could see his work, and he sent me this image.  I gasped when I saw it!  I've already arranged to buy it from him for what I think is a very modest price, and they swear they're coming back.  Everybody wins!

@Ann72 Now that is so special! Now you have to select just the right location, oh, and a frame.

@Susan151 He's going to frame it, too!  But I haven't yet figured out where it's going to go...

@Ann72  Oh artists seem to know just which frame to choose for their own works. That is HUGE!

That is so cool.  We had a guest paint us a picture once and we proudly display it in our house! 

I would love to see a picture of it, @Jeffrey325!

Isn't it great when Guest appreciate the natural beauty in your location?

He must have very much enjoyed some time out with his paints in a natural setting.

How about putting it in your entrance way where all your guests can see it on welcoming?

This is wonderful @Ann72. What a special thing. 

 

I'm finding myself staring at the artwork, trying to picture the view he captured in his artwork, it looks like a moody skyline on the day. 🙂

 

Like @Helen427 mentions, have you picked out a place where you are going to put it?

My day job is picture framing. Once in a while - and it's really just once in a while-  it's groundhog day and I look at a job and just go "wow!".  I think your framer will have one of those wow  days when you present this as a framing job. Very nice.

@Ann72 Beautiful: I love it!

 

We have a lot of art and craft fairs in our town and immediate area, and when vendors stay with us I always try and buy something from them. No one has ever made anything custom for me though: that's awesome.

While I am enjoying your wonderful gift, I think you might consider using it in some marketing material, giving appropriate credit, of course.  Perhaps you might have lovey note cards your guests can enjoy.
