I purchased a framed print by the artist Robert Duncan from Goodwill Thrift Store at 1239 University Ave W, St. Paul, MN. The art print titled ‘Curious Onlookers’ captures a whimsical scene in the countryside, where a group of cows observe a young boy lovingly drag his sled across the snowy landscape, accompanied by his faithful canine companion.

Priced: $12.99

I painted a blue rubber duck on the print and returned this ‘new’ artwork back to the same thrift store on 5/01/2024, around 12:30pm.

A successful collaboration! Thanks, Bob, for your contribution to the work!
