MISSING PAINTINGS IN AUSTRALIA

Many years ago , when I had to leave Australia , I left some of my paintings with our dear friends Andres & Bev , and some other friends , Phil & Glen.

All the time , I kept in touch with Andres , even more than I did with Phil & Glen .

So , to my greatest surprise , I received an e-mail from Andres , without previous warning , giving me 2 DAYS to pick my belongings up , or else .....
REMEMBER THAT I AM LIVING IN EUROPE !!!
I called him straight away : he told me he needed to empty the basement for business purposes .
I replied I would have tried to contact Phil & Glen , who live nearby , and , please , to be patient just for a few more days .
Luckily Phil & Glen were at home , when I called : they understood the situation and called immediately Andres .
Within the " deadline " , they were ready to go and collect my paintings from Andres's place .
Buuut ... Andres didn't answer phone-calls and messages left by Glen ...
Then I received an e-mail from Andres , saying that he had left my paintings , on the road , in front of the Noosa Regional Art Gallery , which was CLOSED !!!!
I believe that Phil went into a lot of trouble but , finally , succeeded and recovered all the paintings Andres had left there ...
Packed and sent to me , the paintings arrived safely and in good condition to the italian address I had indicated .

I PUBLISH HERE THE PHOTOS OF THE 3 MISSING ONES , WHICH , MYSTERIOUSLY , WERE NEVER FOUND .... !!!

A BIG THANKS from my heart goes to PHIL & GLEN in Australia , and to MARCO , in Italy , who solved all the Customs problems .
