From a recent treasure trove of old snap shots here’s another photoshopped restoration of an acrylic painting from 1970. At the time I was the designated art teacher, as well as architect/construction consultant, at Knox College in Jamaica the West Indies.
I have absolutely no idea where this painting ended up, only that the very poor quality photo showed up in an envelope stuck together with a bunch of other olp personal photos from this past life era. This one wasn’t too bad and shows up quite well… tho I can’t imagine actually painting it!

fine painting, great colors
If you saw what a sad shape the 40+ year old photos were in… well, I’m amazed at the few skills I’ve learned in Photoshop to attempt to restore these… this one came out better than some of the others ((which should be appearing on RB soon;-))… maybe the colors are even better than original… but now no way to find out…
thanks… friend… ;-)))

LOVE it! The colors are so beautiful & inviting.
thanks for your colorful comment… and for putting your political tees out there… The one I added to FB has been sent on already… but probably won’t influence any Repubs… they seem locked into their story!
