24.01.2022 Hi Fellow artists we have a selection of paintings that have been left at the DFO gallery for quite a while some for a few years. I am posting images of them in... the hope that someone might know who owns them. Two of them belong to Simone Brown I have no contact details for her as she is not a member of the gallery. They are all lovely works.. they are taking up valuable storage space and risk becoming damaged. If you can identify any of the artists and contact details please contact me at [email protected] Cheers Janice See more
