Yeah, my inclination would be to practice repairs on something less.... less... old, interesting, and unusual.
It was this. I painted it in a black and white checkered pattern. Sold at the antique mall super fast! [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Hopi. Native American. "Second Mesa coiled plaque."
Those old radios are pretty stylish. I see some very sleek Deco ones online. I can understand why people collect them.
Wow-- amazing. I never woulda guessed (either one!). It sure does look like the speaker fabric I'm seeing online. Thanks sleuths!
This is a screen of some sort, and measures apprx 11"x15" (28x35cm). It's a gold-ish fabric-like screen (doesn't seem metallic), glued to a...

This one doesn't look antique to me either.
It's weird how the composition's kinda leaning right. Balance is something that's harder to execute.
I rode my bicycle along the Oregon and Ca coasts in the summer of 2022. North of Eureka, in the redwoods, it rained a lot and my tent leaked: I...
Great painting @bosko69! And I really like this last one above--- the irrigation ditch and cows / barn. Awesome.

I love the coloration on it. Makes it so interesting.
Separate names with a comma.
