Quote: I bought this delicate watercolour by seascape artist Garman Morris because I felt sorry for it! Sadly it does have some damage to the edges due to damp, but the main body of the painting appears to be fine. Perhaps some kind soul out there will look after it. It is titled 'Misty Evening' and comes unframed. Low start due to condition. Prices for his work often go into the low hundreds. The full size is 21" by nearly 8". Please contact me if you have any queries :Unquote
