Title: Interesting oil painting, curious on the artist if the signature looks familiar
Post by: jerryk on August 04, 2016, 06:13:54 PM
came across a wood framed painting that i just i had to buy, i am not an art collector but a working artist who rarely buys others work . I just cant figure out the name, an old painting with tape and instructions to the framer on how he or she would like to have it framed my guess. It's a pretty floral still but just cant get the name, if someones familiar with the name would be most appreciated

The name I can not figure out but looking at the canvas and the tape with the writing on it I don't think it's that old. I would put it around 70s or 80s. The canvas would have a lot more staining to the back. By the picture it appears to have a lot of white still to have real significant age to it.
