Blue is next week.
The Georgia O'Keefe is my favorite here, nice!
ReplyDeleteI found a big pile of them at St. Vincent de Paul. I expect they were in a folder, or envelope, but they have a habit of removing postcards to see individually. Even tearing them out of the perforated books. I tell them I'd pay a few dollars for the book, and they'd get more than the 5¢ each they get now!
DeleteGeorgia O'Keeffe painted all colours of flowers! This one is really beautiful; I cannot imagine how wonderful this painting must be in person.
ReplyDeleteI expect it would be larger, but it's only 8 x 10. Seems disappointing now...
