Settings of Paradise
Jessie Arms Botke was an artist who created bold and decorative paintings, with a predilection for exotic white birds in settings of paradise. She and her artist husband sometimes collaborated — much of the time "leaning heavily on each other for advice, criticism, and encouragement" — basically describing the working relationship of my artist wife and myself.

These are beautiful; and I enjoyed reading the quote about collaboration, and your tribute to your wife and your working relationship.
I love her paintings, and how do you tell if the paintings are authentic or a remake.
