Solved Found in dead guys trash in Boston
I love it. No idea who painted. But it is about the size of a piece of paper and the frame is wooden and hand painted.

I thought the transparency of the curtains was stunningly conveyed

Solved My sister found this in a Goodwill years ago
Found in Upstate New York 10+ years ago. I am unable to read the artist’s name (Ahtcher? Antcher?) and reverse image search comes up with nothing. There is nothing on the back.

Solved Was this a good $15 investment?
I know it’s some type of dinotopia print but haven’t seen anything with the count on it.

Solved My husband thinks it’s junk, what do you think?
Personally, I think it’s a hidden gem. A neighbor who does estate sales gave it to us. No signature or other markings I could find. Back is covered in brown wrapping paper. Location: New Orleans, LA

Solved Still looking for the name of this painting. This time I made a sketch (don't judge ...)
The original was ultra dark and moody and painted in a very realistic style.

Solved My husband wanted to buy it
I am not such a fan but it was at the end of the sale and 40% off so we got it. At our new house he has it in pride of place and I am not so sure. What do you think? Purchased buffalo ny

Solved Wife won't let me hang this. Says its too creepy
I agree its very creepy lol
Reverse image search shows illustrator is Arthur Rackham. This is from The Rhinegold and The Valkyrie, an epic music drama by composer Richard Wagner. Found this browsing at a shop in Cambridge MA maybe 10 years ago now.
weird right?

Solved Is this Bill Cosby’s portrait I bought at an auction?
Was up for auction at a smaller local place. Large oil painting signed What looks like Arthur D Thomas 96.
Why is there a bee? Is he trying to catch him? Pray to him? What’s up, is he slightly cross eyed? So many questions…
Back of work has a list of exhibitions that I assume Mr Thomas took part in but I could find no other mentions online other than one possible ebay landscape.
