I can't believe what I paid for this ugly thing at a garage sale. I won't even disclose the amount, you might scoff. And I don't want no scoffin'. But I was looking for a big canvas so my mom could paint me a picture. That was about three years ago. As you have probably guessed, she never painted on it. I found it while rummaging through her basement last week. It was time to do something about that dark mysterious knight. |
Is that a Gilbert or Jane Stuart circa late 1800's painting you just destroyed? Please comment back, Thank You -Diana
ReplyDeleteohhhhhhhhhhhhhh no... no idea!! please don't tell me I could have sold that for mega bucks or something!! Never heard of Jane Stuart...
ReplyDeleteMaybe George Stuart ? heres a tip for your piece - the flowers are floating and need some sort of visual anchor at the base / a darker color in the bottom half or some element that helps anchor them down.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the advice, Anonymous. I need to get around to heeding it! It actually sort of would have had a base since when I painted the background I had planned on it going horizontally, but then changed my mind and painted the flowers the other direction. Should have stuck with the original plan, perhaps?
