    Hi BMooney,

    I can understand my painting may be a little risqué for a living room. (What would your book club or PTA parents think when they visit!)... lol.

    I would say it would be perfect for a bedroom, "man cave" or hanging above a "home bar".

    I will hold on to it for you within a reasonable time. Just keep me posted what you and your husband wish to do.

    Glad to be of assistance,

    Have a GREAT HOLIDAY SEASON!

    Regards

    Vince.

    Hi Vince,
    Do you have a picture of it and is it something you would be willing to sell?

    Thanks,
    Jim

    I will certainly entertain that Jim; firstly have a look... it should probably be re-framed as there is a few minor wear marks on inner gold-leaf trim, I took a shot and attaching below. The work is on stretched canvas and is in acrylic.

    The dimensions of this work is 3' 8.5" X 2' 8.75".

    I am having a bit of problem uploading URL here. I am found at Flickr / netreacher . Let me know if you are having problems viewing.

    Hi Vince,
    It's a very interesting painting. I like it, but am interested in knowing if being all one color looks good on a wall?

    Thanks,

    Hi Jim,

    I think the photo doesn't really do justice to this work. The lace etc. is in a pale lavender, the subject has soft skin color and she is a brunette. It is a beauty... as I mentioned before in the thread, it would be perfect for a bar area or man cave setting. I have had many compliments on it. Also it would depend on the wall colors and general color motif in the room where it would hang.

    Cheers!

    Jim,

    It was hard to change my wife's mind, but the lowest I could let this full-size painting go is 900.00 +Shipping (still to be checked to your location).

    I believe this to be a fair price as I have seen smaller Susan Day's go for a lot more.

    Hoping this meets with your approval,

    I remain

    Hi Vince,
    That probably is a fair price but it is more than I wanted to spend as I am not a art collector. I just have a wall calling for that picture.
    Thanks,

    Hi Jim,

    I can come down a little as I know what it's like to have space for a great piece of art.

    If you can give it a good home, I will let it go for 600.00 +shipping/handling, I am taking a bit of a "hit" here but I can tell you have great taste. I really can't negotiate a lower price.

    Let me know, I hope this meets your approval,

    Regards

    Vince
