Jacki Newell Is in the House

It's been a couple of years since we've had the pleasure of having Dave and Jacki Newell over for dinner (they now reside in one of the Carolinas, I think) but we do stay in touch a little bit through Facebook.

But our thoughts and prayers regarding these two are pretty regular thanks to the fact that we have an original Jacki Newell painting in our kitchen that reminds us of them all the time. Bless her heart, Jacki gave us this wonderful little painting decades ago and we really like it. It has an honored place in the "friends' art collection" that helps beautify and make endearing our home -- a collection that includes artwork from Leonard Johnson, Ruth Denzler and a whole bunch from Carol Coppi.

But now, thanks to Jacki's teaming up with Fine Art America, we are adding a few more Jacki Newells to that collection. They are poster prints of "Front Range" and "View From The Bridge" and several greeting card size prints: "Old Market Omaha," "New York Taxis," "April Evening," Overcast Morning" and "The Red Umbrella."

But here's the good news for you -- you too can have these (or any of the 25 Jacki Newell prints available through Fine Art America) to make your home or office even more attractive and charming. They're all gorgeous, interesting and surprisingly affordable. For instance, the poster size prints go for as little as $23.50 and the 5" by 7" greeting cards (perfect for framing) for only $4.95.
