    Are all these painting you have been posting about yours? Seems quite the collection, and an art appraiser may have the tools and resources to be a big help.

    All the painting and drawings are all part of my personal collection, I have over 200 so far my problem is I can't stop buying I spend thousands and have no clue what I'm buying but that's the fun finding out.

    Glenn, this isn't how you get info on paintings!
    For starters, there are millions of hobby artists in the world who may never be identified.
    Second, you are in South Africa, and that decreases the odds of anyone from other parts of the world from knowing the artist.
    Third, you need to state the material it's painted on, a pic of the back, the medium, and in many cases, you have to take it out of it's backing or frame.
    You didn't even answer my first question...

    Sorry what was your first question I missed? Not all my painting are from South Africa, Remeber a number of persons get paintings out side SA and bring them back, the painting I list on this site are from artist I can't find in my SA art books.
