I just did a search and saw several links to that one painting being auctioned or offered for $250... Also, where you asked on a Todos Santos forum as
Motana"? Sorry, but after several pages of links I did not have any biography on Alfonso Lopes, the artist... But, someone here will likely find more!
Stay tuned amigo!
