Those two Paint By Numbers are versions of prints by Cosmo De Salvo originally done in 1943 (the top one) and 1947 (the bottom one). The original versions are really quite beautiful but your PBN's have a style all their own. Here are the 2 prints I have (sorry 'bout the flash). I think they aren't quite 'Tiki' in the same way that Tretchikoff isn't quite true honest original authentic tiki. However, like the classic Tretchikoff prints, they work for me.
Hope this helps, cheeky H |
