Hi,

FYI: Fisherman wearing Sou’wester and ready to climb in his dory

My beloved wife Marilyn grew up on a prairie farm in Milo, Alberta Canada, far away from England and the ocean. Her grandmother painted this picture, which seems heavily influenced by the coastal regions of England, perhaps Cornwall. When we married I was fascinated with the eyes that seemed to follow me around the room. My wife described how her sisters used to laugh about the eyes following them and giggling, like little girls do.

I was struck by the resemblance to the fisherman at your website. Who knew!

The picture is as precious as the Mona Lisa, to me

P.S. Norma. I’m going to get a high quality print made from the and frame it exactly the same, Then, when I return to your family I can still have the painting hanging on my wall. Great solution?

Over forty-eight million vacationers visit Spain each year, making it one of the three most visited countries
in the world. To travel to Spain is to experience sun, superb food, hospitality, and “joie de vivre.” Yet, it is
also  to  discover  the  country’s  rich  heritage  of   monuments  and  sights,  the  imprint  of  the  di=erent
civilizations that once made it their home, or to journey through its singular and breathtaking countryside
and delight in the stunning, starkly contrasting scenery, study the customs of its peoples and towns, and
share in their local ?estas and traditions. To travel to Spain is to opt for diversity,
to be the central character in what is sure to be a truly unforgettable story.
This is what makes Spain such a prized destination worldwide and why the
vast   majority   of   those   who   visit   it   once   return   in   order   to   share   in  the
enjoyment  of   a   climate,   countryside   and   culture   which embody a  rather
special way of life.
