| Welcome to our totally disorganized art museum! The challenge is to help us identify all the masterworks in our virtual museum. We'll post a piece of the painting and one clue to get you started. Can you name the artist and the title of the painting? Pieces of the painting and clues to the artist's identity will be added every 24 hours until we have a winner, then the next painting in our collection will be posted. Feel free to use any resources at your disposal to help in your search. Challenge winners will receive a shiny award badge that we will add below their profile image. You will retain this award until someone else wins the award. The AHM Challenge is open to all forum members, not just ws oil painters, so join in and have some fun with us! If you would like to host a AHM Challenge painting; please send a PM to the Challenge Moderator Callie to receive instructions and notice when to post your painting. Be prepared to check in frequently while hosting a challenge! Clue = Nationality - Belgian

| Just spent 2 hours trawling the interwebs....not a clue! Thought I got close with a British artist who was actually born in Belgium, but it wasn't a match. Odd shape/size canvas for what this appears to be Good job, Janet! | |

| That little piece does look unusual. The next piece and clue should help somewhat. | |

| I need some competition here! Judy's on the road and Dale is off for her UK vacation. Maybe over time a few more members might wander in here and find out how addictive this can be! And we're building up quite the art history library as well | |

| Your usual competition is out of town. I'm sure they'll give you a run for your money once they get back. That library can be really handy for inspiration. Once and while I get the urge to copy a master painting so I'll have plenty to choose from here. | |
