I am guessing if you have opened this page, you like folk art. I happen to love it, too, along with a lot of other styles. The other day I got it into my mind that I wanted to try to make A NEW greeting card for Christmas. I wasn't using my head though, on this one, because the format was all wrong for a Christmas Card. I am going to sell this on my ETSY store KOLENESPICHER. Please look it up!

As I was saying, the FRAME is sort of an odd size. It would be perfect for a whale. I happened to fall in love with it, however, because someone a long time ago hand-grained it. I sold myself on it thinking that I could make it work--Wrong! It doesn't work for a greeting card.
I love the happiness of the faces and how they are looking at each other from across the painting.
I am afraid that my Apple Iphone camera is starting to fade away. The pictures are not good quality. This is a little blurry which is why I included the top two pictures first.
The style of this really just goes with the whole primitive thing. My house is a combination of high style, antique, primitive, and Restoration Hardware. Don't knock it, it really looks sort of cool--even after all these years. It reflects the various stages of collecting that I have undergone in the 27 years that I have been married.
Here's a great shot of the frame, as I said, this was hand-grained very long ago. I would put this at nearly 100 years old (the frame). It might be 1920s. Its really a guess.

Currently, I have it hanging beside my VERY FIRST SNOW SCENE. This was a series that you can still buy through Spicher and Co.
