I bought this huge painting for $5 at a garage sale. I didn’t like it but since canvas is expensive I thought I could paint over it. Good thing I didn’t, after research I found out that it is an original Lim Khim Katy painting. I tracked down a dealer of her art and they confirmed with the artist that she painted it just after art school. This piece is completely different than the art she is known for and it seems like she even signs her art in a different area now. Hopefully it will sell for a bundle! 13FB19A0-9D15-43C1-9DD4-FA23ADCE8040.jpegDDBFCA29-16D4-4F4C-AE4C-7182C80D8B10.jpeg

That’s a nice find. Doing the research seems to have saved this piece and could end up being a nice pay day for you. Congrats
 

I always check the backside for a signature. Great find.:icon_thumright:
