I found this painting at a flea market. It's titled Oasis 1967, but as far as I can see (without removing it from its frame) it is unsigned by the artist. I've also discovered that it is based on an album cover from the early 1960s called "Love Songs of Tahiti." It appears the painter has copied the album cover art, with the exception of removing the lei that covered the wahine's breasts. Stolen Idol Black Velvet
