Pink Flamingoes! Charming Old Oil on Canvas Board Painting decorative bowls This is an old one

This is an old one and a rare one--a hand-forged iron meat rack

and lovely details

making it appear as if this shoe has just stepped on a wad of gum

with an old newspaper (Ben-Day dotted) face on the bottom--perhaps a photo of their maker

Pink Flamingoes! Charming Old Oil on Canvas Board Painting decorative bowls This is an old oneIt's rare I come across a painting of flamingoes in these parts, and ever rarer that I fall in love with one, but so it is with this one (and this stately pair of flamingoes feel to me to possess a strong kinship with the egrets and heron of New England!) With a nice painterliness to it, especially gestural portraying the feathers on their backs, plus a great swirl of water around the feet of the one at right, like a whirlpool. Framed: 15 3 4" x 12 3
