Those are a lot more tasteful looking then the majority of art people find in thrift stores thinking they've found some masterpiece. Good Eye!!! To me 90% of the original art I see in thrift shops are pretty much crap. Seems the sigma of finding that million dollar painting in a thrift shop has a lot of folk picking up so many duds. To me if the artist isn't immediately found on a google search then it's best to leave it on the shelf, but some unknown artist stuff is nice to the eyes and have a salable value imo. I've only picked up a handful of art to resell and what I have purchased all made a nice profit.

My main problem with art is usually deciphering the signature.
