Eddie Breen is one cool artist. He takes paintings bought at garage sales and flea markets and makes them better. I can't put my finger on exactly why, but I love this piece and everything on this page.

Fascinating. He takes cheesy or trite "art" and turns it into something intriguing and captivating and worth having. His style is like a cross between graffiti and an exuberant Diego Rivera. I want one.

something else that is a great look: really bad paintings of presidents are prolific at thrift stores and garage sales...individually they aren't much to look at, but four or five different ones grouped together are great!
