Small oil on canvas laid on board painting of a desert, mid to late 20th century, 4 1/2" by 6 1/2" (11 1/2" by 10" framed), signed at lower right by California desert painter KENNETH WALFORD. This is a rather typical example of the work of this artist. I have handled a number of Walford's works. Most feature desert landscapes. Biographical information on the artist seems to be scarce at this time. The painting is lightly soiled, linen liner is stained at upper right.
**One of two works by the artist in my shop** Oil on canvas, titled on original label "Cold Drink Stand", measuring 12" by 16" on the stretchers, 20" by 23 1/4" as framed, signed at lower left by the well listed modernist California painter DAN LUTZ (1906-1978)...
A circa 1840s American Portrait in oil. Unsigned measuring 30x25”
Georgetown circa 1947 oil on canvas by artist Ralph DEBOUGOS The painting is a view of the 1600 block of Wisconsin Ave., Northwest and is incredible because it captures the feeling of the 1940s perfectly after work measures 16 x 20“ in its original frame that measures 22 x 26“
Painting on panel of a young Egyptian youth, 15 3/4" by 12" and not especially complementary, modern day framing, signed at lower right, with reverse original label from Schwartz Freres, of Cairo and Alexandria. The painting is signed at lower right corner, the name appearing as "Thor......". To date I have been unable to decipher the full signature. The work certainly dates to the early years of the century, judging from the label...

Anne Lane studied art at George mason University in Virginia, completed her education at Saint Patrick’s college, Ireland, where she studied theology and philosophy. The tonal and contemplated intensity of her paintings reflect her 10 years spent working as an artist under the desert sun of New Mexico. Her vibrant style,resonant with color and baroque in detail,swoons its delight over her canvases...

Late 20th century oil on canvas including a central figure, bird, young women embracing, and flowers, unsigned, painted in the style of the renowned and world-famous French artist Marc Chagall. The work, unframed, measures 24" by 20". The creator was obviously familiar with the paintings and graphic work of Chagall. Very decorative alternative to having a Chagall print.
For the last four years, I have researched every aspect of this self-portrait to confirm its artist identity!! Today, I can confirm the artist of this self-portrait, it is ROY FOX LICHTENSTEIN!! I was able to match the 1956 signature to the “rather primitive notion of patterned linear repetition”, or unknown markings (which look like Hebrew) on the side of an airplane in the RFL’s drawing “AIRPLANE 1961”. Similar markings can be found on the RFL’s TEN DOLLAR BILL 1956 Lithograph...

A very sweet oil on canvas painting of several young ice skaters in Holland in winter, the scene completed by a classic windmill in the left distance and snowy roofs at right. The work is signed at lower right in red "M. Leuty" or "Lenty". I do not see an obvious listed artist that would correspond. Measurements are 22" by 16", and 26" by 20" framed. Despite the European subject matter, the artist could be American; materials used suggest that possibility...
