Message:: [QUOTE="Lucille.b, post: 34967, member: 51"]Good grief, gum art? Learn something new every day!  I was sort of kidding when I mentioned gum.  It does look like thick paint actually, but the effect is sort of "gum like". It also occurred to me that Sutter Place might do custom framing.  It isn't advertised as a service on their website, but doesn't mean they don't do it. I think it is a man in the 2nd picture.  Guessing this is an older married couple. I do plan to contact the place.  I know these are "rough" looking, but I'll tell you what sold me. That they are done on this old looking re-purposed board. Almost like it was from a barn or something. It just suggested that there was a story somewhere.  And I think it was a nice touch of the set that the two backings are a different color. I will definitely post any info I learn.  I think Sutter Interiors has been around for a while, these could even be 20 years old or better, so they might not be able to help, but I'll give it a shot.  I know these aren't masterpieces, but anything that has me saying, "What in the world?" and costs less than a pint of beer seems to wind up in my personal collection for at least a while.[/QUOTE]
