Well restored paintings are always cause for celebration! So congratulations are in order. They look pretty cool too. That second one by Carl Hall (yet another good artist I’ve never heard of) looks appropriately spooky for our upcoming Halloween season.

The idea of public museums is relatively a new one, and is a real progressive achievement of our society. Whether one is talking about paintings and sculpture or uniquely designed houses, it’s terrible when the best insights of art are available to only wealthy families.

Ernest,
I would begin by looking for an expert on the work of the Artist. The Nebraska University Sheldon Museum of Art, where the research mentioned above was conducted, would be a good place to start your inquiries. They should have the archives of the study. In addition they have five paintings by Blakelock listed on their website collection database and it is likely they still have scholarly contacts interested in work by or attributed to the artist. You might also look for names of authors of recent books and articles on the artist.
