I mentioned on Friday that Adam and I were heading to New York to stay with friends and celebrate another's birthday, and we certainly had fun! Tomorrow I'll share more about how I spent Saturday, but for now I'll be recapping our Sunday morning visit to The Antiques Garage in Chelsea.By no means the first visitors, Adam and I walked leisurely through the indoor flea market (located in what we estimated was a parking garage) at about 10:30. Quickly I knew what the market's strongest offerings were: the fabulous vintage artwork!
Check it out:
A vivid illustration of soldiers, $58 I recall:
This painting will always be remembered as "the one that got away" because I couldn't determine its price or its seller...imagine my annoyance!Wouldn't it have looked lovely in my den!?
And just to round out a great weekend, we stopped by Wogies on Greenwich & Charles for a cheesesteak before heading back to the city that made this its signature cuisine.
I can tell what Adam's thinking here: "Just 20-something days 'til pitchers report to Spring Training." Ha!
Hope you all had as great a weekend as we did!More on NYC tomorrow!

ReplyDeleteSo you didn't buy anything?? I've been slowly adding to my art collection. It's fun but also a definitely something I could learn more about.
ReplyDeleteAlas, Naomi, I did not have the patience and the physical fortitude to deal with the freezing temps on Sunday...I'm still totally bummed about the waves painting (ugh!).
