My Dad found this painting sitting next to a dumpster. He thought I might like the frame. I do like the frame but I also like the painting. I just didn't like the colors together.
I decided to freshen up the frame with a little paint. I think it looks much better!

This painting reminds me of a beach we would go to when we lived in New York.
Jones Beach.
This next painting I recently bought from an antique store for $12! I painted this frame as well. I can't find my before picture but the frame was beige, blah.

I absolutely love having "real" paintings in my home. It's been fun to start collecting art for free or super cheap. I can't wait to see what I can find at Garage Sales!

I love these paintings. They are so charming.
Wow- that was super cool of your dad to find and bring that to you. I really like that too! It's such a beautiful and serene beach picture. Of course, the frame job you did added the magic touch! Way to go!!!
