Welcome to What's On Your Wall Wednesday,
Be sure to go check out her site and see what she is
showing today, as well as everyone else joining
in on Wall Wednesday!!!
The above oil painting is one that was painted in 1961.
My Grandmother painted (as well as my mother)
I have three paintings my Grandmother did over the
years, she didnt work and all her kids were grown
by then.
This painting is one of a series that my Gramma did in Europe
when my Grandfather traveled there to work. Gramma would
either go out for the day and paint or paint from postcards
Last is a Parisian painting. Gramma did in 1963. This is one
of my favorites. It hangs in my living room. Again its mostly
for the memories of her being able to live that great life
of painting in Europe.
See ya next Wed.

Nothing better than family treasures. I always suggest taping a photo and story of how the painting came to be...for those that come after. Adds so much to know who, what, when and why.

very nice. Don't you have something you painted? Let's see it.
I love paintings by family members. It just means so much more!!! Thanks for sharing.
I think your grandmother's paintings are absolutely beautiful. I know you're glad to have them.
These are beautiful and so precious that your grandmother painted them. I love the Parisian street scene in particular.
I love those paintings! How special that your grandmother painted them! My MIL paints and we have 3 large paintings of hers in our kitchen/keeping room. She paints sort of in the style of Grandma Moses...simple, but lovely.
Thanks for stopping by! Linda
