I am searching for an oil on canvas painting which was painted in
1987. It is called "In my room". Is this painting still in England? Is
it in an art gallery?Is it for sale?

Hello there poo2poo

Afraid this looks difficult. All I've managed to find out so far is
that "In my room" has not changed hands at auction. Probably the best
way forward is sending out email enquiries.

Any further information you have could be really helpful.

Have you any idea of the painting's early history, for instance where
it was in 1988/1989/1990? (Although we must ask you not to post a
private collector's personal details.)

Also, could you let us know if you've already contacted Elizabeth
Merriman?  We don't want to spend time trying to find her, just to
discover that she doesn't know or that we're bothering her with
duplicate enquiries.

I will, of course, let you know if I get any helpful responses.

Thanks - Leli

Hello,in regard to youre request for clarification  i can give you
abit more info.I have a postcard of the painting it has a name of an
arts company called Porl Porl which was based in Leeds in the 1980's.
The painting i presume was done in 1987,it gives this date on the
card. I kow the company no longer exists but the painting may still be
somewhere in the Leeds area.I have not tried to contact the artist but
i know she is english. Thanks, i hope this helps!!!

Thank-you very much for the extra information.

I'd been working on a London connection in the eighties and early
nineties, but didn't know about Leeds, so that is very helpful. No
trace of Porl Porl on the web, unfortunately.

From my first wave of emails, I've had answers with suggestions for a
second wave of email enquiries!
I'm finding this an interesting quest but am not expecting quick
results - will let you know immediately if I have any luck.

Do get back in touch if you think of any other clues.

Leli
