Missing Painting Found ...

Sailboats in Gmunden, Austria

Today mom & I spent some time going thru ...
 cupboards and closets at the house ...
cleaning and packing up ...
I had asked mom awhile ago ...
about the whereabouts of this painting ...
mom had forgotten about this one ...
so delighted to have found it ...
at the bottom of a cupboard with games piled on top of it ...

Dad started painting in 1966 ...
he would work all day in the AutoBody Shop
"Ernie's Collision Ltd"
then go to school at night ...
it was a relaxing hobby for dad ...
it wasn't until a couple paintings were created ...
that he started signing them at moms' request ...


This is one of the paintings dad did sign ...
with his initials for ...
"Ernst Aitzetmueller"

I will have more photos to display after Christmas ...
when we all have received our gifts from mom ...
