I have a very similar painting to yourself also bought in Newquay about 30 years ago. When on holiday there a few years ago I mentioned it to the new owner of the gallery and he said it would be worth around £1000 -£1200 now. I think I paid about £30 for the original all those years ago and that was a lot of money!! Don't know how you could sell it though Regards Lesley

: Hi
:
: We have a painting, which we bought in
: Newquay, Cornwall in 1975.
: It is signed IXER in bottom right corner -
: printed upper case letters.
: The scene is Holywell Bay near Newquay
: The painting is 17" by 24" and is
: painted
: on a very dark velvet.
: The picture clearly shows the massive rocks
: on the beach. The sea and the sky between an
: opening in the clouds is painted in a
: distinct vivid green, which catches any
: light reflecting on the painting
:
: I cannot see a bucket on the picute.
:
: Is this painting likely to be the IXER you
: are writing about?
:
: Many thanks
