If only I could find the wall space. :) I cannot bear a blank wall so there's always something hanging somewhere. I too love Homer's paintings of the sea.Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-68668090535421106722011-06-19T10:15:57.120-04:002011-06-19T10:15:57.120-04:00Kathy: I learn something new every day myself.

We have a copy of 'Hurricane, Bahamas' hanging over our bed and 'The Blue Boat' in my bathroom. I love lying in the tub looking at the beautiful painting.joan.kylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17015342608992682333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-44739012722211220062011-06-19T02:12:48.577-04:002011-06-19T02:12:48.577-04:00My Dad loved paintings of ships on the sea and shi...My Dad loved paintings of ships on the sea and ships in bottles. I'm sure he knew of and liked Homer's sea paintings.<br /><br />I, however, love the painting of the woman reading. Did not know whose it was.<br /><br />Blogs sure are educational.

Blogs are so great for making new discoveries - don't you think?<br /><br />Winslow Homer is one of our American greats.<br /><br />I've always wanted to visit Cornwall, but have never had the chance. :)Yvettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08919246184376538331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3185294584889963228.post-14874911691876561322011-06-18T12:27:35.590-04:002011-06-18T12:27:35.590-04:00Having been brought up by the sea (Penzance, in Co...Having been brought up by the sea (Penzance, in Cornwall) I absolutely love sea paintings so really enjoyed seeing these by an artist unknown to me before. They remind me a bit of The Newlyn School of art paintings.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.com
