So help identifying it may not happen. two, years ago I spoke and did a deal with the super nice people that ran/run the black velvet museum. After the deal, I asked about some hibiscus paintings I have. They explained one of the biggest problems with black velvet art is that most is done by street painters and often in foreign countries. These artists are about making money, tourism, quick street sales, often they don't sign them, and very little is known about them. Outside of the famous ones, nobody really keeps track of these artists. All that matters is YOU like it. Hang it up and Enjoy it man.....
