I finally heard from the collector in Klagenfurt, Austria, that their painting made the trip in one piece. Whew! It's always nerve-wracking for me until I know a shipped painting has arrived safely. This lucky painting's new home is in a lakefront house. A long story as to how an Austrian came to buy one of my paintings. It involves my husband who likes to practice speaking German, a high-profile murder trial in Manhattan, and an Austrian judge on vacation with her friends.
