[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 4613704, member: 84"]There is an expression that I think applies here - "karma is a bitch"! Earlier this week I found what I am sure is a Mughal painting, but most thought it was a print or print on canvas - then yesterday I found this piece: I was able to find that this is by well known Cuban artist Eduardo Roco Salazar who is known as Choco, but I can't tell if it's a painting (less likely because signature is not sharp), a print, a woodblock, or I found some of his work that looks similar with the ridges on the paper called collagraph; could this be that? (Looking up Choco I saw that almost all of his portrait type art are facing right while mine is facing left + a image search didn't turn up this one - which made me a little hopeful that this could be a painting?) So now I come, humbly & with hat in hand, to ask for help with what I have? It is also signed with a message to someone on the back. Thank you for any help (and for all your help in the past with the stuff I find - Mark London, Any Jewelry, Roaring20s and rink28 especially - and always thanks to Debora!) PS - Does the paper come with all the ridges on it & the artist paints on it, or is it added somehow by the artist?
