Purchased these two paintings from the artist Roger Etienne in 1981 in Hollywood. Just wondering what their worth is today.

Roger Etienne was an artist in every sense of the word. He was a talented impressionist painter, and his works of art can be found all over the world. He first started painting and sketching as a young boy, selling his first drawings on the train, his hobby quickly turned into a passion. He worked with a variety of different mediums, gouache, watercolor, oils, pastel, charcoal, often incorporating French newspapers on his canvases. He often painted landscapes of his hometown of Bruges, images of Parisian love, flowers, nudes, whimsical clowns, and wide eyed children. He is credited to have worked alongside his friend, Pablo Picasso at his workshop.

If I owned them I wouldn't take $1000 each for them. They would look too good on the wall. Hard to put a price on something you enjoy, if you don't need the money! h

His works seems a cross over somewhere between Cezanne and early Henri Matisse’s works to the later Picasso era. Definitely heavily influenced by the impressionist area. For me personally some of his works are hot and cold. It seems he pumped out a lot of works for the making a living, somewhat lacking the inspiration he was capable off. I think that is reflected in the price of his works get today.
