Dear George,

That must be a spur of the moment purchase as well.Smiley

Sorry I have to say not as exciting as the one Pat bought recently, altho similar subject and bottle shape.

The rock,trees and flowers are painted well, but I really don't like those figure painting.

Sorry for the negative comments Wink

Lol !  Cheesy

Yes, it was indeed a spur of the moment purchase..  You pretty much know my taste in bottles, and this is not one of them..

The theme is run of the mill, and I agree with you that it is not a good figural paintings..

Always appreciate the honesty Steven...  Truly !  Smiley
