Paintings For Pets

Hi all.
Our good friend Barry (popeye) Launius will be holding another sale of his wonderful paintings next week but this time he has kindly offered to donate half of the sales to the Peanut Pet Shelter

The sale will take place on Monday 24th and Tuesday 25th of next week from 6pm til 11 pm both nights at the Luna Blue Bar .
Please come along and take a look at Barry's pictures and if you buy one (or lots) not only will you own a Popeye origional you will be helping the animals too.

Here is an example of some of the beautiful paintings that will be on show


NOT quite finished


Probably $300.00




Sample of Watercolor


BIG ONE! Acrylic on Canvas


Blue_Explorer


Thank You

I've got three of Barry's original watercolors hanging in my home, and they always make me smile - beautiful artwork from a beautiful person.

And in this instance, for a beautiful cause - The Peanut Pet Shelter!!

If you're in Playa, you owe it to yourself to stop by the Luna Blue and check out Barry's works. And meet the guy too - he's a gem.
