I purchased a framed print (print of a painting) by the artist Hugh Knollys from Hidden Treasures Thrift Store (2915 Pentagon Drive, Minneapolis, MN 55418). Titled ‘Red Jacket’, (which I am assuming is the name of the ship) the landscape painting presents a large ship sailing across the sea. Signature on the bottom right.

The print/painting cost $3.00.

I painted a yellow rubber duck on the piece, signed it, and then returned this ‘new’ painting back to Hidden Treasures Thrift Store on April 17, 2021, 4:30pm.


A successful collaboration! Thank you Hugh for your contribution to the work.
