A collection of paintings
Everytime we pick up a painting from a Value Village or the Mission Store, there is a deep seated need to validate the purchase via an internet search to see if we can find the same image, the artist or a previous auction that proves that our new acquisition is worth more than we paid for it. Typically there is nothing to find, but the thrill of the hunt keeps us going. Anyway, the paintings listed below constitutes our collection and by documenting them on the internet, perhaps we will help the next Value Village customer decide to buy or not to buy.
