Thrift Store Art Find

Roaming through a local thrift store today with June, I found this original watercolor tucked away in a corner. It was $1.75 and is signed. I did a quick search on the 'net but didn't find anything. The store's label on the back called it a self portrait so they may know more about it than I do. I think it's really well done. The condition of the artboard isn't great, and it's roughly cut in places. It may even have been used behind another piece for a while.  But she'll have a place out in the open now.

June also bought me a cool little telescope there. The next clear night or celestial event and I'm going to try to see it, lol! At the least I bet I can get the moon in pretty good focus.
