“ Forever  Sunny”

By Sandra M. Philpott

 

This image of “Forever Sunny” is from an original oil painting by Sandra Philpott.  Sandra has generously allowed the Brandywine Valley Driving Club to use her painting to promote the 16th Annual  Brandywine Carriage Driving Show and it will appear on posters, note cards and giclée prints.

 The note cards and giclée prints are now available for sale to support the Carriage Driving Show.  The prints are offered as signed and numbered limited editions of twenty five prints per size and can be ordered either framed or unframed.  The note cards are offered in packages of ten cards with envelopes.

 The framing was chosen by the artist, together with the professional framers at the Paper Lion Gallery in Lemoyne, Pennsylvania who do beautiful work. If ordered framed, the print will be tastefully framed in a one and a half inch walnut frame with a three inch (or two inch for the smaller size print) “tumbleweed”,  color single mat (acid free) and protected from UV rays under conservation glass.

A framed giclée print will be on display at the Pleasure Show on June 13th and, if still available, will be offered for sale during the Show.  These are limited editions and only twenty five of each size will be made. The note cards will be available for purchase at the Show, as well.

 

Prices:

 ●Note cards:  Ten cards and envelopes - $10.00

 ●20x24 inch unframed giclée print (same size of the original oil painting) signed and numbered:  $90.00(plus tax, if applicable)

 ●11x14 inch unframed giclée print signed and numbered:  $40.00 (plus tax, if applicable)

Framing as described above, is offered at cost:

 ●For the 20x24 inch sized print: $165.00 (plus tax, if applicable)

 ●For the 11x14 inch sized print:  $90.00 (plus tax, if applicable)

 Shipping:  If requested, prints, either framed or unframed, will be shipped via UPS and the actual cost of the shipping will be charged.  Arrangements can be made to pick up the art work when it is ready from the framer, or it can be available for pick up at the Pleasure Show on June 13th.

 Please direct any questions (including verification of tax and shipping charges) and requests for purchases to Margaret Grillet at margaretgrillet@yahoo.com or 302-465-2200.  Checks should be made payable to Brandywine Valley Driving Club, Inc.
