[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 4396471, member: 84"]I found this yesterday at a local thrift store. In came in from the same donor that gave the store a Lourdes Gomez painting that I asked about yesterday. I've heard of Maitland Smith - makers of fine reproduction furniture - but until I looked this piece up I didn't know they also made paintings. I think this is a painting but am not sure - there are not a lot of Maitland Smith paintings to compare and I haven't found another like this. It feels like it's on a board? (see last photo back looks kind of like a honeycomb?) and feels a little sandy - maybe chalk? And I can't feel any ridges that a turning brush would make. It measures 40" x 32" and it's not signed anywhere. Is this a painting or a print/litho? As always I appreciate the help from you all!
