[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 4611853, member: 84"]I found this painting today at a friend's thrift store (actually on the truck - I saw it as soon as they opened the doors!) - is it eastern? Asian? Hindu? Why are these paintings not signed? I think it's good; especially the faces (the jaws & noses especially) - is this a good painting? How can you tell one by a known artist & one by an amateur or week-end artist? I was told before that it's because these are usually painted in a village by someone from the village & for the village, so everyone already knows who painted it? Any thoughts of information on it would be appreciated. [ATTACH=full]410295[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]410296[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]410297[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]410298[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
