Is this an original?

Found some info: http://www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/folk-art-by-bonnie-butler-highwaymen-painter

Also here is one by her, a numbered print.

After reading the bio on the back of the painting on ebay, she lived in Mississippi so I dont think she was one of the Florida "Highwaymen". The JOHN14:6 shows its her art.

Do you have any idea of the value?  I have a painting of hers of a baptism.
