Original Oil Painting by Disney Artist
I came across a charming Oil Painting, in New Brunswick Canada in an antique shop. The Artist's name was Maurice Day, who I've learned since was either an animater in the Bambi days, or worked with Disney then. I do know they showed the premier of the movie (Bambi) in his hometown in maine in his honor. I paid a pretty penny for it BEFORE I knew who the artist was. I'm having a hard time finding info on Mr. Day, and have to clue as to what to do with this lovely piece.

thanks for the info! I contacted the art museum in the hometown of Mr. Day in maine and they were very helpful with info on this artist. The painting is very large and is of a nude girl sitting on a tree stump, with her arms wrapped around her knees (no nudity showing). She reminds you of snow white. The colors are gorgeous, earth tones, and there are several pencil sketched on the back of the canvas. I'm looking for a buyer for this piece, and welcome any questions about the piece, also can forward a photo upon request.
