It Spoke To Me

Two weekends ago I went to a local antique market and met my sister there. I knew she needed a day out and some retail therapy after her photo shoot was over. The very first booth we checked out was full of some pieces that I really loved. We talked to the owner a bit and I had my eye on one old oil painting. Since it was the first booth I figured I better go look some more before buying the first thing I see. So we stopped at the next booth and it was full of great things we both liked. I think we could have stayed in that booth for a long time and probably did. I did make a purchase in the second booth, but will share that another time.

This is the painting from the first booth that I kept thinking should I or shouldn't I?

It's not a grand painting, but it caught my eye. I seem to be drawn to crude paintings since this is probably the third one I have bought.

I also love when these old canvases are unframed and show wear.

The booth owner and I were discussing the possible location of this scene and we are guessing maybe Korea or China.

Mr. Savvy believes this is a water buffalo. 

Whatever it is and wherever the country is it came home with me because it spoke to me and now it hangs in this corner of my kitchen. 

They say buy what you love and you will find a spot for it and I did. I moved the bread board I had here to another spot.

I can't wait to see your finds, projects, crafts, recipes and anything else you want to share tonight at Wow Us Wednesdays.

See you there!
