    cl1.jpg cl2.jpg cl4.jpg got some close ups in the daylight,after taking it right apart, i'm pretty convinced.
    looks like a paint bubble on the fire part of the press
    i admit that the copyright aspect did concern me, any thoughts ?

    Yes, it does. It looks like watercolour to me too. You can even see the 'fuzziness' of the paper due to the saturation of the wet paint.

    According to the internet, the Burton Art Galley had a retrospective of her work in 1996.

    It's common in recent times, that artists mark their art retaining reproduction rights. The buyer of the art, just owns the original.

    That is odd. Maybe a result of AI and all that?

    Retaining reproduction rights can be a source of income for the artist if the image becomes popular.

    The notice of copyright retained or "not transferred" has been around on art for quite some time but I typically only see it on...how do we say? Original art sold at the lower end. So art sold at fairs, conventions, or mid-tier galleries, etc. The sort of places where you sell to middle classes who don't understand that they can't just buy the original piece and then make copies of it, or use it commercially. Some people have been known to think they've cracked a code and can buy an original piece and then profit off it, not realizing that's not how copyright is transferred (or at the price that happens!). :rolleyes: I've seen this sort at low commercial level too. The kind of business people who don't speak to their lawyer as often as they should...

    I wouldn't think of reproducing art I own, which is probably why it was a novel concept to me. But what you say makes sense of course.
    We live in strange times.:rolleyes:
