    Ted Finn is a local artist, I just found out he lives down the street from me, maybe I will try to meet him. This painting is 24" X 18". Yes all his art was destroyed and Eaten until retirement. I read about him in newspaper here. He was a Cake decorator during his life, so all his art was eaten. His paintings look like cake decorations a little, kind of folk art, but also a lot of talent, the trees, the bright colors. thanks for looking! toracat

      I just picked up a piece of his art. I didn't realize he was a local artist. Thought it was a cool piece of folk art, Groucho and Clark

      Hi torcat, I purchased 2 Ted Finn paintings in Healdsburg about 6 years ago. I absolutely adore them. Is Ted Finn still working? Have you seen his paintings for sale lately? Thanks!
