<p>[QUOTE="antidiem, post: 2924078, member: 30"]It's not typical to what I call, "factory art", but as Debora mentioned, these were painted to be decorative. The signature does not match "Oliver" (although the pallet colors do!) and I cannot read more than "corn" into the one. They do look like actual oil paintings, and not giclee prints, by the way the paint has been so easily scuffed off of the surface, although even this is difficult to discern. I believe it was painted by a good amateur who didn't varnish the painting to protect it, after the paint dried. </p><p><br /></p><p>Does your camera always cause something to moire in the pictures?
