Description: I would love for someone to have this wonderfully detailed painting! If you are very attracted to this piece, it’s always a good idea to buy! Why? COLLECTING ART: The purchase of original art from an unheralded artist is a very smart investment! You obtain art at an unbelievable price compared to prices a gallery commands. Think about collector Gertrude Stein. She bought many artworks by Picasso and Matisse, when both were not yet famous and when their art was not expensive. Keep in mind that the value of art is never fixed, but will only increase within time. Lastly, support living artists, the dead ones don't need the money! Poor (literally) Van Gogh sold ONE painting his entire life. His brother Theo supported him financially while he continued painting! “HOTEL DEL CORONADO” Watercolor Painting 11 x 14 inches I am selling an ORIGINAL watercolor painting of the historic Hotel del Coronado, located in San Diego. This is the first watercolor I've done of this famous hotel. This fabulous hotel is one of the few surviving examples of a significant American architectural genre: the wooden Victorian beach resort. This hotel opened in 1888. At that time, it was the largest hotel in the world. It boasts celebrity guests as well as presidents and royalty. The hotel has been featured in numerous movies, including Some Like it Hot, my all time favorite comedy with Jack Lemmon, Tony Curtis, and Marilyn Monroe. DETAILS: This watercolor is painted on acid free professional watercolor paper that measures 11 X 14. It is signed in watercolor the artist, K Jones (Kristi Jones) in the lower left hand corner. The title and other information is written on the back. SHIPPING: This painting will come in a plastic sleeve and will be carefully packaged and include tracking information and insurance. Watermark will not appear on the watercolor. Copyright does not transfer with sale of this art. EBAY SHOP: Please view my other paintings and original artwork in my Ebay Shop! Thanks for stopping by! About the artist: Kristi Jones (formerly Kristi Diaz) was raised by artistic parents, both having art degrees. Her father has placed (numerous times) in the top tenth percentile in state and federal duck stamp art contests, and her mother has sold work at a local gallery. Kristi studied art at the New Orleans Academy of Fine Arts (NOAFA), and is also self-taught. She has sold work at local shows and galleries, and has exhibited in shows in New Orleans and in northwest Caddo Parish, including Centenary College's Meadows Museum of Art and Artspace in downtown Shreveport. In 2011, she was awarded a visual arts grant from the Shreveport Regional Arts Council (SRAC). In 2015, she was commissioned to create 29 paintings for the new University Medical Center in New Orleans.
