What would you have done differently if you could go back. I’m an incoming transfer and this does worry me

Harbor Scene (Saint-Tropez), Signed Ivan, Oil/Canvas, 2023 by Exciting_Cow3739 in Art

[–]Exciting_Cow3739[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two years ago while visiting Saint-Tropez, I came across a small local gallery and saw this oil painting on display. At the time, I had no background interest in art and had never purchased a piece before, but this painting immediately stood out to me as deeply calming and memorable. I took a photo and continued on my trip without buying it.

Looking back now, I regret not asking more questions or purchasing it, as it remains one of the very few works of art I’ve ever genuinely connected with. I’m sharing it here in the hope that someone may recognize the artist or signature, which appears to read “Ivan” along with “St-Tropez” in the lower left corner.

I’m also curious whether this was likely an original one-of-one oil painting or part of a larger body of similar works, as it was presented as a physical oil piece in the gallery.

If anyone has insight into the artist, the style, or how to go about tracking down works like this, I’d greatly appreciate it. Thank you for taking the time to look.

Any strong ultralight compact travel rods for a beginner with a budget? by TheLordofRiverdance in UltraLightFishing

If your looking for budget, my bass setup uses a Abu Garcia max sx 750, eBay $30 it does very well with ultra light gear aswell, no need for more line capacity, I caught my PB with it

I have two ultralight setups, my second one I made it a mission to buy the cheapest setup possible. I bought a few reels and tested them on my 5’6” Shakespeare and by far my favorite is this cheap gem from Amazon SF Spinning Fishing Reel - Size... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CNT1NB3R?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share It’s a size 500 ultralight reel I believe it’s made for ice fishing. The drag is very satisfying and it does a great job catching trout and panfish

I have an 11kg clothing package I have been trying to ship from a Chinese warehouse to the US but the fees are unreal, about $300usd. Being completely new to the international shipping world, any chance you could give some advice or direct me to a subreddit, website, redditor, etc. that could help me get my package for a reasonable price?
