Original.  Do you know the first time I saw this terrific film ?  My Aunt invited us over for a Sunday dinner.  She owned one of the first RCA color television sets, and there it was right there in her living room !  The film started in black and white, as we all know, but for this 5 or 6 year old kid, when Dorothy opened the door to the Land of OZ, in color, I was never going to be the same!   Another magical moment was the above scene:  Wicked Witch of the West hovering over the most famous crystal ball in film history.  The Witch was looking at this crystal ball, seeing Dorothy IN COLOR, just like I was watching this amazing RCA c-o-l-o-r  television for the first time in my life.  wow !

If you are wondering, commissioned oil paintings are a great gift.  EVERYBODY loves a portrait or loves to surprise someone.  Contact me for details or click the BUY NOW button $495 oil painting.  You may come to my studio for a photography session.  I will also work with your favorite photograph.

This is an original work of art by California artist, Nancy Tokos, member American Impressionist Society and Oil Painters of America.  Oil paint on oil paper.  Safely packaged and shipped via FedEx but please allow 1-5 days for shipping. Oil paintings + drawings dealing with the sea or nautical theme are very handsome in their "barnwood" frame, my favorite available at Frame USA http://www.frameusa.com/.
