G D Paulraj - Bringing Home the Catch

This painting is currently for sale on Ebay in California, USA.  The seller has agreed that I may add a photo of the painting.  The item number is 180856586554 and the auction ends on 11 April 2012 so you will need to be quick if you wish to bid on the painting.

The painting shows two fishermen dragging their boat to the high water line after returning from a fishing trip.  What is unusual about this painting is that there is quite a lot of detail on the fisherman as well (muscles).  The starting price is $150 US dollars which converts to around £96.15 based on the current exchange rate of $1.56 = £1.00. Price dropped to $100.00 and it sold on 27 April 2012.

Apparently on the reverse is an incomplete painting of a young girl which is also very interesting as well.

Two for the price of one.  Thanks to the seller deez-dem-and-doze for allowing me to add the painting to this blog.

G D Thyagaraj - Holy Man

This is a painting by G D Thyagaraj and it is slightly unusual as it is a portrait of a holy man.  It is quite a dark painting, I am not sure if I like it.  It is currently for sale with an art dealer in California.  I will add a link to the site in the next few days once I can find it again.

G D Paulraj - Chai Wallah

Painting by G D Paulraj that seems to be called "Chai Wallah", which I assume means tea seller or tea shop.

This is the second painting of this name I have now added both being slightly different.  There is also a nice name on the rear showing the price of Rs. 275/-.  It has been suggested due to the address on the back that this painting was done between 1967 and 1978, an eleven year time span, but still helpful.

I think it was for sale in the USA during 2010, I do not think that I have added this one before.  It has a framers stamp on the back and it was called the "Happy Dragon" in California.

G D Paulraj - Under the Giant Tree

This painting shows a lady moving baskets under a giant tree, not sure what she has been doing but it is quite an interesting painting but fairly dark.  You can see the sun shining through the canopy of trees.  It is currently for a sale with a fine art dealer in the USA called VanderMolen Fine Art

No price is given so if anyone is interested you will have to approach the dealer directly.  He has it listed under Californian Artists, but it was Arul Raj and not Paul Raj who worked in the USA.

G D Paul Raj - Ebay

I have noticed (December 2009) a G D Paul Raj painting listed on Ebay in California for sale for $895 US Dollars, item number 3801 6621 8998.

Looks like a nice painting.
