7 For $700 and Under

Hi friends!  So I came up with a fun idea late last night.  My birthday is coming up on September 7th, and so for this next week leading up to it, I thought I would offer seven of my original paintings each for $700 or under.

I am only offering them at these prices from September 1st through my birthday September 7th.  I will be out of town from September 9-14.  So if any of them sell, I won't be able to ship them out until after I get back.  But that's good in case anyone needs/wants some extra time to pay for them.

Anyway, they are first come, first serve.  All I need is a message sent to me at ryandelgadoart@gmail.com  indicating which painting you would like.  From there, I will send a PayPal invoice to you where you can pay directly with Paypal or credit card.

Without further ado, here are the 7 available original pieces at $700 or under:

Galilee

10x20 inches
$600
