It isn't. Here's the story. (You can also scroll down and read in Introduction). I do love painting, it's a fabulous hobby. Over the past several years, I've taken a weekly art class, and actually made quite a few paintings. Way too many to hang up in my own house.
The problem is, I never know who actually secretly WANTS a painting as a gift, and who is complementing my work, because my house is full of it, and I clearly did it all. So, if you are a friend of mine, leave me a comment, send me an email, whatever, and tell me if you want anything.
They are free - unless you feel like giving me money, which is also totally cool. Unnecessary, but fine. You can always owe me a beer / dinner / place to stay if I ever come to visit. I make no promises.... I took the pictures, and posted them a bit later, so I may be wrong on sizes. Also, if there's a huge rush on a painting, everyone can't win... but I can try and make another.
Some are my personal favourites, and I'm including them here because I love them, adn this way I can show off my work.
So, without any further adieu, please browse at your leisure!
