The next few paintings are by the children at a Prague school at which I recently taught. 
I helped them produce these works for a charity auction. 
They sold for a total of  CZK 59,000, which went to Dobrý Anděl.
After original works by Banksy, Van Gogh and Pockley.


Class 1, girls on the left, boys on the right
The price reached at auction for the whale made it my costliest ever sale, which just goes to show that the key determinant of price is the market, not the work of art!

My claim to fame: I taught at the university he attended!

Being on a very thin pine panel, you'll need to frame this one to counter its natural warping.
However, it being a standard size, you can get a ready-made frame for almost nothing.
