Melba 1977

My last trip to Goodwill landed me a wonderful find! A beautiful painting by Melba, dated 1977.

This reminded me of my grandmother. Grandma painted some beautiful flowers in her day. Unfortunately, she had LOTS of kids and I never got to have one of her paintings because they were in high demand. I found it quite sad someone in Melba's family would let this go, or Melba decided it wasn't good enough to keep. I think it's absolutely beautiful and will think of Grandma every time I look at it.

I refurbished the frame. I think the painting stands out so much better!
