[QUOTE="Snowman Cometh, post: 12512247, member: 83302"]I see so many art collections at flea markets. Most belong there. But, then there are others that are actually very good. I feel bad for these artists that should be known, and are so unknown, that most of their art is thrown on the ground to be picked through by people who want it for a dollar, so they can sell it for two. Today I found a person selling a beautiful collection of art that I had to leave most because I didn't have enough to buy them. These were my three favorites.
