Son of "Enormity of Skies"

For all those who have admired the painting enormity of skies which hangs in my living room and which I've become too attached to to sell I thought I'd create some smaller versions to sell or swap.

Enormities of skies
Above is the first of the series which is not for sale or swap. What is for sale or swap are the smaller paintings on the right. Signed oil on canvas each one is different but directly inspired by its Dad, Enormity of Skies. There is even one painting created by my son. They can be swapped or sold as individuals or at a lot of 3 50x60cm one 20x50cm and one 46x36 paintings. If you want them framing I can arrange that for you in a frame of your choice.
To discuss a fair swap or sale e mail me at bethbarlow@bethbarlow.com

I have a selection of Beautiful Things which I have boxed up and created Art Prints for. They can be seen at the link below. They are to be bartered for with interesting proposals for what will happen to them having a higher value than pure cash deals. They can be swapped for items from the "Things I need" list too.
