I purchased a framed print by the artist Lucas from Goodwill Thrift Store (1239 University Ave W) in St Paul, MN. The picture is a still life with bottles, tomatoes, grapes, and garlic.
In the image, the table at the bottom appears to be jutting out at the viewer in an optical illusion, but I’m not sure if that is in the original painting or not; I couldn’t find any info on the artist online.

Original price: $5.00

I painted a Ben Franklin rubber duck on the print and returned this ‘new’ artwork back to the same thrift store on 03/02/2025, around 4:52 pm.

A successful collaboration! Thanks Lucas for your contribution to the work!
