I purchased a painting by the artist Guerra from Hidden Treasures Thrift Store on 06/10/2023. The landscape painting shows a tropical beach with a lighthouse on the right side. Priced: $1.99.
I painted a rubber flamingo (plastic flamingo?) on the piece and returned this ‘new’ artwork back to the same thrift store on 07/08/2023, around 2:00pm. A successful collaboration! Thanks, Guerra, for your contribution to the work!

I painted a rubber duck on the painting and then returned this “new” artwork to the same thrift store of purchase on 05/09/2022. Around 6pm CT.
A successful collaboration! Thanks Norm for your contribution to the work.

I purchased a framed painting (actually a print) a few weeks ago at Hidden Treasures Thrift Store (2915 Pentagon Dr, St Anthony, MN) by the artist Tan Chun C. I added a rubber duck to the piece and then returned it to the same thrift store on October 11, 2021. I went with a Pilgrim rubber duck because… well, it seemed to fit well with the color scheme. Images below highlight the process.
Thanks to the artist Tan Chun C, wherever you are, for collaborating with me on this project!
