<p>[QUOTE=&quot;verybrad, post: 114734, member: 37&quot;]Some final comments on these two and I will post a new pair in a bit.&nbsp; As I said above, I chose these two at least in part due to the fact that I felt some people would not like them.&nbsp; The other reason I chose them is that they were both modern still-life paintings with differing techniques.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Painting A is signed <i>T. Denver</i> and, based on others with this exact signature, I have come to the conclusion that it is a factory painting.&nbsp; It does not have too much age to it.&nbsp; It was purchased at the thrift store for a few dollars.&nbsp; I put it in a simple black frame and sold it for around $25.00 in my store after having it sit for quite awhile.&nbsp; </p><p><br /></p><p>Painting B is signed <i>V. Wheeler</i> and titled <i>Feast</i>.&nbsp; I was never able to attribute it.&nbsp; It likely dates to the 50s or 60s based on the board and the framing.&nbsp; I sold this in my store very quickly for around $150.00.&nbsp; I believe it went to an out of town dealer. </p><p><br /></p><p>I purchased it and another painting by the same artist for $10.00 each from the thrift store. I think the second painting to be stronger in execution, if not in subject and composition.&nbsp; I have not been able to sell it for under $100.00 in both my store and on ebay.&nbsp; I have not tried for a couple years and still have it.&nbsp; Here it is for comparison.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]28818[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
