Old Painting Wilma Bland

I bought 3 paintings from an older man who was going out of business,his son didn't want them.He had them for many years and didn't know anything about the artist.I put paintings on another site and the son of the artist gave me all information except,he didn't know what paintings were selling for.So I thought maybe someone know a little about sales on the artist.Here's information the son gave me about 5 years ago.1940,there's 2 paintings on here
Wilma Bland (1914-2002) was my mother. I believe the bridge in your painting was in Chicago's Lincoln Park. She was Chicago-born/raised/married, moving to Memphis c. 1939 w/dad. She studied at what I believe was called the Memphis Academy of Art and later did studies at Northwestern, The (Chicago) Art Institute, and with Hans Hoffman in Provincetown, MA. She taught art for the Memphis Recreation Dept. for about 25 years. She exhibited widely in the Mid-South, including at Brooks Gallery in Memphis. Years ago, she had a one-man show at Chicago's Newman Brown Gallery. She sold and donated what paintings she had left near the end of her life although, happily, I have about a dozen that she and I considered some of her best work. The paintings hang proudly in my home. Glad you share my enthusiasm for her work! Would enjoy hearing how you discovered her. Side notes: Mom was best friends with noted Chicago artist Diane Duvigneaud who headed the North Central College (Naperville, IL) for many years.

Nice colour palette, weird composition though

 

Yes that's the post the son gave me all the information.I was hoping I could find a sale price.
