    If that was a few dollars, I'd have bought it. I think it's cool.
    Definitely worth $2.

    I firmly believe art is in the eye of the beholder. No two people are alike. What I like, you might hate. No one (I don't think) sets out to create a painting everyone will hate. It would be self defeating. Some people just don't have talent (like me). But, that's another discussion.

    Epic rain today in Portland, Oregon (2-3"!). The good news is, it meant that I drove to work instead of bicycle and so had time to hit a couple of thrift stores.

    Found this good 18"x24" landscape for $15. I'll cut a frame for it from reclaimed boards.

    At a different store I found this Chief Joseph painting. $10! Based on an Edward Curtis photo I think, but actually a really nice painting.

    (Definitely a painting--- I had to do a double check myself.)

    Like both of these. Any signature on the first one? Definitely from a confident hand.

    Thanks! No, no signature, unfortunately.
