I wonder if either of his sons or siblings paint as well? Those painting are really beautiful.

Thank you for the individual links, Tyger. I like the Wensleydale views. He's really quite talented.

His achievement of light here is splendid. I'd spring for a copy of this one. I think one can buy copies if I read the site correctly.

Really? That's worth looking into; not everyone can say they have artwork by the Prince of Wales hanging on their walls!

What? You've lost me -  Its funny? The site says you can buy signed lithographs. Actual works - the originals - are never for sale though it seems the wealthy and famous do get them somehow. Anyhoo - as I do dabble in watercolor myself - that skyscape over Windsor really catches my eye. Wouldn't mind one - I'll hang it next to my Picasso.

I guess my attempt at humor fell a bit flat. I had meant that if you had one of the POW's artworks on your walls, you could claim that you own something painted by royalty - a bit impressive for family or friends who may not know that Charles paints, copies of his lithos are sold and whom you could tease. Naturally it couldn't be an original, although maybe my Monet won't know the difference!

Tyger, thank you for the individual links to all the paintings. They're all very well done. I had no idea that you could buy a signed lithographs. Would be delightful to have something painted by royalty in one's collection.

Well, I got a response to my inquiry to the art gallery.
Text: Many thanks for the email.
Please find attached our current price list for the works by The Prince of Wales.
Windsor Castle North Aspect is one of the more expensive works priced at £15,000. We are able to offer spreading of payments if this helps at all.
Do let us know if you have any queries or would like to come in at all to view the works.
Warmest wishes
 You will notice that my choice 'is one of the more expensive works'. The same happens when I pick out jewelry - anything really.
Its heartening to hear that I could 'spread the payments'. Hmmm.....
Now where is that lottery ticket....when is the full moon?

A Monet? Ah, you win. Your Monet outranks my Picasso.

Yikes! Though I cannot say that I'm surprised at the prices. By the way, I have the same issues when it comes to finding jewelry. My eyes go to the most simple, elegant and expensive pieces. Never fails.

Ah, well, Tyger and Daria, at least you both have good taste in choosing the more expensive of artwork and jewelry. I fear I also have "beer pockets and champagne taste," as the saying goes, when it comes to luxury items as well!
