Uh... I can't talk to "competitors", Cathy! (Hee-Hee! Thanks a bunch, kiddo!)
Autographed of-course!!! And I shall be your biggest fan, well next to Fannie Flagg's bigest fan:D
You know how you were saying you liked quotes, well I read this one and I thought of you (cause you like quotes), then MamaM (cause she is a true rebel), then KYH (cause he places good ole' common sence over Fed. reg,'s & guidelines:D), and me just cause:rolleyes: at times it is so very true!
It is by Robert Frost: :"And were an epitaph to be my story
I'd have a short one ready for my own.
I would have written of me on my stone:
I had a lover's quarrel with the world."
Isn't that a cool one!!!
By the way check out this web-site and see if the painting you are looking for was done in this style :Cynthia Kelly Paintings I just feel she was the one who was the artist that painted the image you are looking for.
And I will forgive you for being a traitor (State Farm I just can't believe you!) if I do get that autographed copy!!!

I like the Robert Frost lines a lot, Cathy- thanks for sharing!
Thanks also for the link to Cynthia Kelly's work... what a talent she is! I particulularly like her "Grape Study" and "Heaven" watercolors- so lively and LOVELY, too.
Although I love her style- the piece I'm looking for isn't her's... I discovered this just this morning when per your recommendation I googled her and did some looking around... in fact, I may not have expressed this well enough early on, but the piece I'm on the lookout for isn't actually a painting, rather, it's a resin/molded piece to hang on the wall- copied to look an original wood carving or 2-dimensional "relief", measuring a bit over a foot wide, by not quite 2 feet in height- and it's 2-dimensional effects protrude outward from the wall it's hung on by 2 to 4 or 5 inches in some parts, and it's a dark "walnutty" brown in color. I wish I could somehow better convey the memory I have of it in my head... sure would like to find it, but I never will if I can't even describe it well enuf! Dang it, anyway! But, my search continues...

I think you described it well, I just interpreted it wrong is all, I imagined it sort of as a painting glued to a resin carved board made to look like wood, not as an actual carving. I bet MamaM will come thru for you, plus I will ask my Mom just in case her memory is better that mine. I also found the new web-site for S&H I was wondering if in their business archives they could let you know what the exact product is that you are looking for; of-course you could always track down the culprit in your family that made off with it Ha-Ha! I would give anything just to see some of their old product booklets! I used to save them when I was a very young newly-wed and mother and the budget was so tight & I loved trading them in on stuff it felt like Christmas to me!!! They discontinued them shortly after, what a sad day! Well I didn't mean to digress.....I believe one will show up for you!
