Dan was operateing a studio in california. 1970 to 1989 it's a impressionist painting. certainly worth further research.

Hi, I took it out of the frame, it looks to be  mounted on board and has a cardboard backing, for frame. Hope that helps , I am not an expert on art by any means.  Thank you!

Here comes the next biggie....does it look like a true oil or a print that has been varnished over?

His works are worth quite a bit of money is why I am asking. (Not your garage sale price!)  You could have quite a find there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Did you ever establish that it is canvass on a board, painted on a board, or paper on a board?  You said mounted on a board.  Please indicate if you can!
