Art Sale

I was able to resell a food and wine painting to a fish shop in New York City.  The fish shop had an upscale clientele and they wanted to put some artwork on the walls of the lobby.  I found an original oil painting by Marie M. Vlasic of a lobster.  It was such a good food and wine painting and it looked at home in the fish shop.

There was a dessert shop owner in Denver that contacted me and asked me to keep an eye out for food and wine paintings that featured pears.  She had developed several pear recipes that were fast becoming her signature dishes and she wanted to address that with the art hanging in her establishment.

I found a lovely oil on wood food and wine painting of four pears on a glass table.  The artist paints a new painting every day.  I commissioned him to make me six more paintings of pears and then I sold all seven to the dessert shop owner that had contacted me.  She was thrilled with the pieces and invited me to visit sometime.

I have a friend that owns a local beer joint.  I immediately thought of him when I was on a buying trip for food and wine paintings.  I saw an oil painting on stretched canvas that featured a close-up of an unopened bottle of beer.  It was perfect for him.  I bought it and it still hangs at the end of his bar.

My little sister was redecorating her shop and I found a great original oil food and wine painting.  The artist’s subject was a large spoon and strawberry jam.  The piece looked delicious!  I gave it to her shop and she hung it in the area that she sells gourmet jams.
