vintage postcards
Fifi Flowers is a prodigy with a paintbrush! Look at the razzmatazz she gave this vintage image! Her paintings are vibrant, vivacious, and deserve their own verb. It's been Fified! Notice the touches of added oh la la! I spy the Eiffel tower and a pastry shop:) My walls will soon be plastered by her work! How could I possibly resist?

A neverending source of fun and ideas. I see postcards now in a whole new light.. and it's all your fault. I mean Fifi Flowers no I can't resist.
Noah is a really beautiful baby on your previous post.
The painting is fabulous. I love it !
I do not know if you saw the prison door painted by an american wooman, It is the door iof the prison of the castle of our town. You can watch it on the side of my blog page.
The name of the son of my sister's son is Nooah too.
As an art aficionado, I can truly appreciate this. Thanks for the info.
Fifi La Fleur sounds like she might be a cousin of Fanfan La Tulipe. (Bad pun.) But I do like her work!
Thanks for sharing this post! You made the vintage postcards interesting to us! Thanks also for your visit!

Oh that's fun ... now I want to see pix of the place she will hang ..
A chair in front of a patisserie is much nicer than the one at the end of an alley.
Sherrie - You can buy her paintings in note card form or you can have the actual signed original painting à la Fifi!
Do I recognize some influence of Toulouse-Lautrec? Or Am I just showing my ignorance.
Thank you for the kind comment!
How nice! Love it!
Yes!!
She really turned the nice photo into something cool :-)
Good morning, Marie!
I have chosen you to receive an award for having "One Lovely Blog". You can pick it up at my blog, Tennessee Memories.

Too Totally Terrific! Looks a little Toulouse-Lautrec -ee to me

An interesting and informative "P" post. I really like the painting.
A great photo and a very talented artist. Thanks for sharing them.
I like the changes Madame Flowers made. Her picture looks a bit more modern.
What a super idea! Now I'm inspired.
Oh my, I love this!

Marie: That change to art was done beautifully.
How do you manage to get hold of such cool things? I love coming around to see them.
Hi Marie-
Merci for visiting me the other day. J'adore your blog and it tickles my fancy that we both are named Marie, except I'm jealous that you live in France ;)

This is wonderful, art always is, but Fifi's touches make everything so chic and new!
Well, that's both an original idea and an original 'P'!
Very good! :)
I agree, this is a wonderful painting. It has a great look about it. Her website looks like fun too.
You have the coolest collection! And you know so much about each postcard you show us!
Oh my goodness, what a stunning artwork from a wonderful photo! Have a great day, Marie :)

That's very creative, it adds a breath of life to the postcard.
Beautiful! I love to draw old postcards, too. Just lovely.
Its very nice in the bottom colored in/cartoon version - almost looks real, like the real one.
I really enjoyed seeing how she adapted this postcard.
