I love them, especially the ones I paint myself. I didn't have time to for many years but recently i stopped working and now started to enjoy this hobby of mine again! Do you prefer paintings of famous artists or look at the content rather or even enjoy the ones you paint more?

I don't do art painting. I am not good at that at all. I tried at it during my younger years, but I gave it up. But, I like paintings very much, and I have a number of beautiful paintings in my house. From different countries and cultures too.

That must be quite a collection then? From which cultures and countries?

I love paintings. I admit that the author took his time to think of the composition and make the painting. I respect every kind of art and the people who do it. For me it's good to see that someone has put effort into doing something different and creative. Sometimes I also draw some things. Draw, beacause painting with oil or acrylic paints is not my power. I don't have preferences about paintings, I can enjoy them all, no matter if they are painted by famous artists or by someone like me. Before all, art is for people to enjoy it and to feel happy and satisfied.

:) Yeah, I like your attitude. And that's the way it should be. No one can tell you what to do, no matter if it's your husband or wife.

Hi. Meryembay. Welcome to myLot! I love paintings of flowers. This is my favorite type of painting to look at. The painting does not have to be about famous artists. It can just be about, beautiful symbolic patterns. I love paintings that are very unique.

Meyembay, I love good paintings, mainly realistic and impressionaistic paintings! I especially love my husband's Pen and Ink drawings and Pastel drawings. I really do not enjoy abstracts since they don't connect emotionally with me, even though the colors may be good, they are usually lacking in content!

Paintings are just plain beautiful. I wish I had the space to store all the ones I buy. I do not have preference over another.
