    Last name is Guy not Buy, IMHO.

    Wellcome Dolphins (that sounds weird to say),:)
    What I can tell you is that Betty Guy is a very ironic name for obvious reasons. I think this is who you are looking for:

    Actually you did all the work:shame:! That was the first thing that came up after searching Betty Guy. I was about to come back and tell her that I couldn't even find the artist Betty buy on the Deepest Darkest part of the Web!:hilarious::D

    You are awesome ! Any idea how I learn the value ? I am just starting to google around. These are family items I am charged with making decisions

    I did a little looking and similar works seem to sell for about $50-$150.:)
    (assuming this is not a print)

    Where do I look to find values ? I posted another one John Haymson in another thread. I am so glad I found this forum :)

    First you have to determine whether they're actual watercolors or prints. Will make great difference in value.

    I am wondering how this got to the midwest, unless it was when my grandfather traveled to the west coast and he brought it home to grandma ;)
