Australian Henk Guth painting I found - same on ebay?

I found this at a thrift shop today & bought it because the colors reminded me of a sunset in NC as a kid (+ it was under $20)
But when I did an image search, not only did I find the artist; Henk Guth, a listed/well known Australian artist - but I found the exact same painting on ebay?
I'm going to send a Pic to the seller & ask if they still have it, but what are the odds?!
PS - last Pic is close up so you can see this is a painting on board & not a print of some kind.
Here is same(?) painting:

The one on the Bay looks like it's a painting from the same vantage, different time of day. But what painter puts their name in block letters at the top like that?

 

HENK GUTH. Gotta be an anagram.

looks like a ffffffffffffff painting from here, and thats coming from my stomach

 

I did that so I could remember the artist - I have a Lot of paintings!

 

mate you should be able to tell by now, by the hideous nature of it

come on journey, i expect better by now

 

There are a number of paintings by this artist on Ebay. Just a few sold. (In the $100 range).

P.S. If you try to sell, show the painting alone in your photo. No name on the top for sure. The name on there is distracting.

 

My eyes!

 

all i ever see you do Mark is slag off journeys paintings ?

you never bring anything else to the table

 

easy really, was waiting for it, then like clockwork

I guess you haven’t seen all of my posts or my helpful comments. So be it. I have suggested several times over the years that Journey spend some time in local museums and art galleries to better educate his eye. I agree that taste is subjective but there is a reason that such paintings end up at thrift shops.

 

I totally agree, its redundant buying paintings like this, but we need your help.

 

I have also pointed out that absent real knowledge of art and/or the art market, do your research before purchasing.

 

i scream bollockx

 

oh i know everything about paintings, this and that, whats good and whats not

you can't learn that

 

But if you are buying for resale it is best to have some knowledge. Journey seems to have a very good eye for his non art related purchases and has made some excellent finds.

 

he has a very good eye for cool stuffs, just makes me mad that you have obviously a good eye for art, and we don't see that

 

Charlie has made a post revealing mood disorder crash. Think comments here should be taken with that in mind.

 

I agree I don't have the best eye when it comes to art, but when I did an image search & saw his works were a couple hundred each (maybe because they were Australian dollars!) & this was only $12.95 I bought it.
But again I have to agree that when it comes to art I seem to have terrible taste (remember the Florida Highway Men painting I found - I thought it was so ugly I almost didn't even do a search on his name, but I ended up selling it for over $3,000 - and to the director of a public art center in Ft Lauderdale!).
I appreciate your input Mark - good or bad!
