Thrift Art Gallery - More Beautiful Mystery's

I've posted a few Beautiful Mystery's from my Thrift Art Gallery before and actually got help identifying a few pieces, so I thought I'd show ya' a few more from my collection.

This is the 1st piece of art I remember buying. It was at a thrift in FL and has hung in every one of our homes since.  So much for starting small, LOL.
It's signed "Dormz Weimer" or Weiner...I've never found out any info on it, but love it just the same.


This beautiful floral painting is also really fun. I love the color and texture of the sunflowers though the artist "Redi" has never come up during my searches?

Asian art is all the rage and this litho by P. Chu has been a mystery for a few years. 
Signed: P. Chu, Poppies II 170/500
It hangs proudly in my spare bedroom all the same, as does this lovely asian inspired bird painting hanging in our dining room.
Signed H. Johnon, Oil on Canvas
Though they may not be worth their weight in gold, these pieces all bring a little beauty to my life everyday. You don't have to spend a fortune on art that makes you happy...but it's always fun to know that artist behind the art!
If you have insight on any of the art on my blog I'd love to hear about it! Thanks for stopping bye!

A Letter to 2013

Dear 2013:
2012 was pretty damn fabulous, so I'm sad to say goodbye. But in the new year there are many things I will conspire to do more of:

Make more art.
Continue to travel & visit at least 2 new countries.
Focus on my relationship.
Make new friends.
Work smarter & make lots of money.
Live a lighter healthier life.
Enjoy getting regular exercise.
Have more sex (oops, did I say that out loud? LOL!).

Reasonable goals & I look forward to making them all priorities in 2013!

Cheers ~ Lara
