“If I can ever figure out how to post one of them from my cell phone to the thread I will do that. So far I haven’t figured it out. The pictures I have posted before came from my camera which I then put in my pictures folder on my computer.”

You can send me one, either via text or email, and I will post it. Or more than one. I’ll send my email and phone number in a freepmail.

That is so neat! My grandfather was an art professor in italy. He went to school in venezia. I have no artistic ability whatsoever. So watching him do a painting from the beginning to end was like magic. He started with a pencil drawing and obviously he knew what he was doing but I couldn’t figure it out until later. So neat. One is one of the best things of is I have his paintings all over this house. I’ll post some pictures of those. Every time we would visit and he would offer paintings I would take anything he would give me. I’m so glad I did. He was never very successful as an artist. So I figure I am putting his legacy on my walls. The sad thing is my sisters and mother had his paintings also, but they all passed away and they’re husbands have them and probably have no emotional attachment to them. And who knows who’s going to get them after, if they still even have them

Yes please do that.

I mostly did landscapings and some ocean scenes etc. I will try to send when I get your information. It will be way late tonight or tomorrow though before I get them to you.

I would very much like to see your grandfathers Paintings.
