Subject:Beautiful Painting Translation
Posted By: Hillary greathouse Sun, Nov 08, 2020 IP: 98.21.168.114

Hello,
I recently purchased a painting that caught my eye at a local thrift store. I found it very beautiful and didn’t analyze the artwork until i got home. It seems to me that i have found an original piece of artwork and was hoping someone could please translate the artists name and the title of the painting.

with Gratitude,
Hillary

Chinese flower-bird characters. It is a style of traditional Chinese calligraphy written by folk artists.
I try to read the 3 characters;
口遠來 - 口comes from far ??? (Not 朋 or 友 - friend)
Colophon reads,
冩於北京地城  一九九六年  - Written in Peking's Downtown 1996
Seal,
萬寶書画 - Wanbao Calligraphy and Painting

With regards,
I.Nagy
