I haven't been able to find any well-known artists with that name. On the assumption the artist is French, I did a search on Google for delon peintre and found at least 2 possibilities. Here's a link to that search:

I also have a painting by the name of DELON and he noramlly goes by the name of don hughes if you want to look him up.
By the way, most of his paintings are original. Like my one.

Default Paintings by Delon

I have four paintings by Delon I purchased them from an art shop in Newquay in 1972, at the time of purchase you received a guarantee stamped on the receipt that they would buy them back from you implying a good invstment sadly that owner has passed away but the shop still exists.
I paid over £250 for the four various size paintings I wonder if there value has increased any offers of a suggestion.

I have a couple of oils by Delon/Don Hughes and they have been admired by friends who are interested in buying similar. Anyone wishing to sell? I'm new to this board and not very switched on with regard to computers. Can you get in touch if you are interested in selling

Sorry, Don, there is a delay while posts to the forum are manually approved. Should emails be sent to hotmail.com or hotmail.co.uk, or is either acceptable?

Default Delon Painting

I have a beautiful Delon Painting of a cottage across a yellow meadow, the way the sunlight has been captured is amazing, everyone who visits my house states what a lovely painting it is. It sit well next to my David Curtis painting (local artist in Doncaster). I also bought the painting from the shop in Newquay opposite the famous pub.

Keep up the good work Don, you are one quality artist !!!

Kind regards
Scott F

Default Delon artist I have too

Is your picture of a smuggling scene. As I got mine from from an art shop in Cornwall near Crantock in about 1980. He had several other paintings there and I think he was local to the area. I am looking myself to see if mine is worth anything. I did once find him on the website, but am trying to find him again.

Hope of use if it is a smuggling type scene.
