[QUOTE="journeymagazine, post: 867007, member: 84"]OK this has been in a local thrift store for a few weeks - they've been asking $299 for it! They got a bunch of new paintings in today so I asked the manager if he was ready to finally discount it & he thought for a bit & then said. "$80 if you want it, Charlie." I wanted it & bought it. And once again I need help finding out who the artist is!(There is some writing - in Spanish I think - on the back Any thoughts (NOT a factory art, right??!) would be appreciated. PS - One of the new paintings is by the same artist in same style; it's of a barefoot (large feet!) peasant(?) sweeping the floor with a handful of twigs or young tree branches - she is sweeping up pieces of newspaper & some are floating in the air showing - I think - political reports? PS - this one is large: 33" x 39" Again, Thank You!
