An older watercolor, needlenose eel ( I think?!) thought this frame fit it well. Much into eels those days, but I still love them and hope to paint more!

Just put this vintage Edward Hopper framed print (The Catboat) in my @gootdings shop. It’s a print from a 1939 folio WPA book. I framed it in a wooden brown frame. Love it!
A few new paintings! The first three listed in the shop. The last I might re-paint. Not sure😏

My sister found this poster folded up between a few books at a thrift shop. For those of you who don’t remember him, Sean Cassidy was quite the heartthrob singer when I was around 8 (long ago and far away 😉)Then he did the Hardy Boys TV show with Parker Stevenson (my real crush!). Think I’ll hang it above my bed.

He loved Duckie so, and would compose sad little love songs for her, but she never paid much attention. She was more interested in shaking her feathers free of mud, and the tiny fennel seeds she found near the old hound. But he persisted, strumming along, his fingers bleeding and guitar left with only one string.
Found this guy recently, love him and I’ll never part w him. #vintage #vintageguitar #vintagebanjo #vintagecuba #cubanguitar #vintagechalkware

Just listed this beautiful vintage pastel in my vintage shop. It had a really bland original frame and spotty mat so I swapped out the mat and reframed it in this vintage carved wooden frame. Listed at @gootdings.

A recent find - and placed temporarily in this vintage bamboo frame, which probably doesn’t match the New England vibe. But I love the house & style rendered - the perfect beach home, modest and a bit ramshackle, the place we all long for, or at least I do. A sampling of a favorite art find for the #tqitb (the quest is the best) @megillicutti

I know it’s National dog day but I only have a menagerie of vintage dog & cat (and a live one 😁) figurines wandering around my house. So for now I can only offer Picasso and this clever cat. Just listed these two prints in my Etsy shop.

Was thinking of Goa (India) the other day- if you’ve never been, go, it’s an amazing, special place. This is a pic I took of a great old bar in Panjim, the capital - probably not there anymore. And a (geeky 😂) picture of me, my husband and son. Long ago! Miss India! #goa #india #panjim

Sometimes the old coonhounds lounge out behind the damp haystacks after a hunt and smoke Moore cigarettes in ebony filters. Beautiful Antique Hermann Gustav Simon Hunting Dogs print. These are English Setters, I believe. Framed in original vintage wooden frame. 16.5” x 21.5”.
$75. Herman Gustav Simon was born in Germany in 1846. The Simon family emigrated to the United States, settling in Philadelphia in 1848. Early in his life Herman Simon displayed an artistic talent. He entered the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts and exhibited in the Annual Exhibition of 1863. He also exhibited several paintings at the Centennial Exhibition of 1876. A contemporary of Thomas Eakins at the Academy, Herman Simon came to specialize in animal, sporting and landscape scenes. He exhibited several times between 1876 and 1887 at the Academy and with the Philadelphia Society of Artists in 1879-81. Source - Askart.com.
Told the girls I really wasn’t in a “gleaming good mood” for portrait taking, but Flora insisted. In two weeks I’ll be leaving her, my old silver cigarette case filled with Gitanes, my flannel trousers pressed for an exotic beauty in Tangiers. No more bourgeois banality for Boris! Kidding aside this is a very neat, old framed family portrait. 17” x 12. Wooden distressed frame.
$38. #vintagephotography #vintagestyle #vintagephoto #familyportraits #vintageportrait #familyphotos #gitanes #boug
