Commission Delivered to Switzerland

Carved Monterey Pine II - 10 in. x 8 in.

In my last blog post, I mentioned a commission that I was working on for a patron from Switzerland. I am pleased to say that I finished it, and then mailed it via the US Postal Service.
There is always a moment of trepidation when I ship my paintings. Even though I pack them very carefully, I worry that careless handling or some other disaster may befall them. However, the package arrived in only a few days, to our mutual delight. My patron emailed me that
"These will bring some more color in my office,  and a piece of California's nature as well."
Kind words indeed, and it is very gratifying to have four of my carved paintings, one of which you see here,  gracing a wall in Zurich.
