That is Priceless by Steve Melcher for June 03, 2019

“Mabel, I think that fisherman has an extra large mackerel.”

Even though their husbands were still out to sea, Betty was just not in the mood at that moment.

“Have I ever told you you’re beautiful without your glasses? Also, what’s that girl with the orange back reading over there?” (Referencing last Thursday’s painting)

A teaser for Belgian Beach Memoirs. I think I’ll pass.

Sally sews sea shirts down at the sea shore….

“What do you mean, you’re leaving me to get married?”

“Come on, let’s go skinny dipping. It’ll be fun!”

You know, we could wash our scarves instead of sewing a new one each week.

Can you embroider anything other than seascapes?

According to Henri Bource, these are “Mädchen in belgischer Tracht am Strand”—“Young women in Belgian dress at the beach”. Hmmm. Young? Maybe pushing it a bit? Maybe “Alte Mädchen in belgischer Tracht am Strand“?

She loved talking with Greta. She was the only person she knew who could switch between Newtonian and Quantum Physics without dropping a stitch.

“Sew? Sew what? LOL.. get it? Hey, you tell a better one little miss frump face.”

They told her that life’s a beach/ that pleasure is well within reach/ but the ocean, while close/ made them still more morose/ and for God’s sake, Nancy – impeach ! (sorry- ran off the rails a bit…)

I don’t want to go to Poland.

Olga being told she will never learn to fold a napkin correctly if she doesn’t keep practicing.

Madam Defarge practicing for Paris.

Sophie’s idea for shirts-in-a-bottle never caughton.

We’ve been here for 10 minutes now. Don’t you think we’ve had enough sun?

(best viewed by Google Chrome, which can automatically translate most pages as necessary) has info and links that point to info about this roughly jumbo envelope size painting.

http://www.askart.com/artist/Henri_Jacques_Bource/11090385/Henri_Jacques_Bource.aspx 

both have info (again, the 2nd can be read in full for free on Fridays) about this artist. Other than what’s perhaps indirectly pointed to by the first URL: 

https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henri_Bource 

and links it points to, I was unable to find other info about this artist (that Chrome could attempt to translate). It too points to both artist info URLs. This is the first work by him used here.

Again, a larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #2214 (June 2, 2019) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment.

Really! They said we can model for the Stella Artois label if we come in the back door tonight.

“The whitecaps are strong today!”

Henrietta" tired of marge is sewing a sail so she can lay on her back, holding it and sail away.

Wow! Who knew Mennonites could pole dance?! I mean sure, it makes sense the Amish would. There’s no technology in a pole after all.

“Pole dancing class? But we already know how to polka.”

“When Jacques told you to surrender to him…I don’t think he meant with a white flag.”

“Karen, I know you’re mad at him, but I don’t think sewing sand into his boxers is the answer.”
