Description
Described in the history, we found it at a salvation army 9 or 10 years ago. After hanging in our living room for that time, we got curious. Doing some research on the artist, R. Delongpre, he supposedly only painted floral paintings. I have not found anything on the internet for this specific item, which makes us more curious. It is surely an original because of the textures on the painting that you can feel. Any help is appreciated. Thank you! (sorry the pictures are not the greatest)
Re: R. Delongpre- Mysterious Painting?
I also have a very similar almost the same painting and i do not know anything about it either.
Re: R. Delongpre- Mysterious Painting?
I also have this picture, My grandfather had it for many years before i got it. if you find out anything let me know too.
Re: R. Delongpre- Mysterious Painting?
I have a painting by this same artist. I know its him because the signature is the same with one exception, my painting has a circled C after the signature. I also suspect its a acrylic. I don't see how to attach in this reply but I have pictures of my painting and the signature. Its absolutely the same artist. My painting is of a white persian cat so the topic is the same and is really large almost 5' x 5'. This is not, however, the Delongpre that paints only florals because these paintings are too recent.
I got my painting from a friend whose friend was moving and had no room to move with it and gave it to me. I live in the east bay area of California. I don't know who he got it from. I've had the painting for about 7 years.
I had a lady contact me a couple years ago about this artist. I'm wondering if its you for she had a owl painting too. She was from back east, I'm thinking mid westish. Is that you? Did you contact me once? What a kick if its so! Here we are again! If not theres someone else who also has a owl painting by a R. Delongpre

1970's-1980's commercial mass-produced "art'. Flea market price, aka what someone wants to pay for it.
Re: R. Delongpre- Mysterious Painting?
Have you found any information? I have the exact same painting but pretty sure it a reproduction because the signature doesn't match any others I've seen by delongprie.
