"Magnolia #4"

 (oil pencils, watercolor, pastel. 15"x17" framed)

 

It's 12 December, and I've just replied to the FOURTEENTH request for this picture (let me emphasize that no one seems to have noticed the exitence of the other 3 "magnolias")

 

In any case, this has to be the most "already sold" picture in my career.  I wouldn't have predicted that, but then I've never been particularly adept at figuring out what other people want/need (hint: I was single, and not for lack of trying to get hitched, until I was 45).
