Love

This hippie couple probably dates from the late sixties/early seventies and was more than probably painted in Los Angeles. The blond lady must have been Ann, his then wife. Flower power rules in this painting. Good message.

Recently I found the following in my husband's portfolio
"Suite of 17 Sorceress"Series 1978
3 watercolors -22 x 30
2 pen and ink 17 x 22
2 pen and ink 10 x 11

1 oil on canvas "#10 Destiny's Past" 1971

Can you tell me anything about them? The oil painting is in perfect shape and framed but the others are dirty on the edges. thx!

This painting is from the Love collection 1970, all painted in Vejle, Denmark as a celebration of his daughter Rikke Lise's birth, Oct. 22.1970.
This is Tony and Anne Mafia.

The only thing I have is a version of a photograph of Love on a cd rom. I do not know who took the pictures.I guess Tony one day long ago gave the negatives to someone for safekeeping.
And for Joanie: you'll have to leave your contact address... and I'll see what I can find out.

the deleted items was a double of one of the comments and a mistake in posting my comment, so no censureship.

Hi, I have LOVE the painting of Tony and Anne described above. It was a gift to my wife many years ago from a friend who found it at an estate sale.

This painting found its way back to me, his daughter and I cherish it. I got it as a gift from the owners in Massachusetts in 2018. So grateful to know my birth was such a celebration. ❤️🥰❤️
