“Floats” by Jon Wilkinson

Floats by Jon Wilkinson

Our “Pick” this week is a recent acquisition; “Floats” a limited edition serigraph by Canadian Artist Jon Wilkinson. Mr. Wilkinson was born in Hamilton Ontario in 1940 and recently died in 2012. His work has been exhibited in Canada, Portugal, London and New York. This piece is 11/88, a hard to find early number in the print run. It has been professionally matted and framed and measures about 28″ by 29″ in the frame. The nautical theme of the work would be a fantastic addition to that vacation home or any home for that matter.

Tina Turns the Country On

IMG_2446

This week I am highlighting one of the many new records that we have recently acquired. From 1973 we have the second Tina Turner solo album “Tina Turns the Country On!” Country and Western hasn’t sounded this good since Ray Charles released Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music back in 1962. Just like with Ray’s album, Country songs become R&B and sound like it was always meant to be. Come in soon to see our wide selection of vintage records.

Japanese Satsuma Ginger Jar

This week our “Pick” is another treasure from a far off country. It is a beautiful  hand painted Japanese Satsuma Ginger Jar. This lovely earthenware vessel is adorned with resting figures, Japanese text and gilding. While it is not antique it is a very attractive piece and shows the great skill of the artist who created it.
