This one is a challenge. Several years ago I was in a gallery and found two artist that my husband and I really liked. I kept the artist cards but have moved and can not find them. Help please.
The first one is an elephant with a bird that is blue flying by him. John Banovich seems the closest to the style of the artwork, but I have not been able to find the actual piece of artwork.
Second the really hard one. This artist is very detailed and did a lot of paintings with fruit and silver. It has a modern look and feel to it. The colors are exact and the fruit if I remember right were dripping and the silver had a shaved twirl happening.
I know that is not much information but if you have any idea's that would be helpful.
Thank you
