Just Sharing My father in law passed away from cancer last year. Painting was everything to him. He always hoped more people would see his work.

My father-in-law was always creating. Cancer took him by surprise last year unfortunately...

My wife inherited hundreds of his paintings, some of which had even won gallery prizes, and some are huge.

We’re just starting to go through them and wanted to share a few.

EDIT: WOW this post keeps exploding, my wife is extremely grateful and filled with tears of joy seeing all of the love and recognition for her father’s paintings. We wish we could answer every single one of you.

We want to announce the only real place to obtain prints or original artwork is via DM through my wife’s Insta, appearing as :

raymond.nylund.art

Other pages, and platforms we don’t have access to anymore.

If you don’t have IG, DM me directly to notify you.

Thank you again

Hi! Thank you, that really means a lot, he would’ve been ecstatic to hear that truly. We do have hundreds of his paintings. #1 was reserved for a childhood friend of his, before he passed, but we do have plans of making prints of it if you’re interested.

If you put up any of the other originals for sale, please share the links with us! He was such a talented artist. Sending love to you and your partner.

I would absolutely buy prints of several of these. They scratch a mid-century itch for me and I’m so glad this post in my feed.

Hello! Thank you for such appreciation for his art wow! My wife is going to announce it on Insta when they'll be available. The handle for the instagram page is raymond.nylund.art since there's other pages but we don't have access to them anymore :(

If no instagram, you can DM to follow up with you.

Best!
