Pastel Signed J. T. Meyers
Gin-For's Odditiques: Paintings and Prints For Sale
(Cats and batteries not included.)
I've always had a fondness for pastel work, but this one is my favorite, especially that delightful sky. The image, unusually dark and rich for pastels, features a cottage by the water. It's signed in the lower left: Mrs. J. T. Meyers 1920. This may well be part of that era when china painting and other art were favorite past times for women, though somewhat late in that period. Mrs. Meyers may well have been an amateur, but she was certainly talented. The frame is a contemporary addition made of wood-look plastic, attractive as long as you don't contemplate it too closely.
Size: Frame size is about 24 1/2" x 16 1/2" while the opening is about 22 1/2" x 14 1/2".
Price: $175 plus shipping and insurance.

Buying, Paying, and Such Things
You may notice that we don't have a checkout where you can just click for your goodies without so much as saying hello. Well, we want people to say hello, ask questions, even hope for a better deal. Long ago, I told stories for 7 hours (free refills on coffee), so "impersonal" just isn't my style. Click on one of those "E-mail" buttons. I can't handle as much coffee as I used to, so the stories will be fewer.
These days, Paypal is about the easiest payment method around, but we still take checks, even cash. No Monopoly money, nothing printed up in your basement, no chickens, etc., but otherwise we're fairly flexible. If we can put it in the bank without anyone getting in a tizzy, we'll probably take it.
Please take time to stroll through the site. Sorry we can't offer you a cup of coffee or tea while you're looking, but maybe you can take care of that yourself. Just don't spill it on the keyboard. And if you run into any questions along the way, there should be an e-mail link on every page, so just click and ask.
Hope you'll enjoy our "sing the body eclectic" approach (with apologies to Walt Whitman). As always, proceeds go to support our creditors, my spouse, our cats, my auction addiction, and the plumbing project that never ends.
