The printout presented above dated October 23rd, 2008 shows what appeared on Ritchie 'Stardreamer' Sinclair's website www.stardreamers.com in "Woodland Art Online Gallery".
-
The same information can no longer be found at
www.stardreamers.com because it was deleted of the "Woodland Art Online Gallery" by its webmaster as explained in "Changing Faces of Ritchie "Stardreamer" Sinclair (Part I)".

BLOG MASTER'S COMMENT: After starting the 'Norval Morrisseau Market Espionage Conspiracy', Ritchie Sinclair added the following disclaimer onto each page of his website at www.stardreamers.com on "Woodland Art Online Gallery" (click on image above):
-
"The images posted in this archive are not for sale. They are simply pictures that I collected from various internet art sources years ago and posted here for inspiration and enjoyment. With the exception of paintings that I witnissed painted or Exhibited by Morrisseau I have no way of discerning whether the images shown here are all authentic Morrisseau originals. Nevertheless, Enjoy!"
-
Even after admitting that 'he has no way of discerning what is and what is not an original work by Norval Morrisseau, except those he witnessed painted or exhibited by Norval Morrisseau'. He has labeled hundreds of paintings being sold in galleries all across North America and in private collections as "Inferior Counterfeit Morrisseaus"?
-
Ritchie 'Stardreamer' Sinclair never examined any of these paintings in person as required by the standard protocols of professional authenticators. To witness the details of this atrocity see his website at www.morrisseau.com under the category "Counterfeit Norval Morrisseau Art".

HA HA HA So the "stardreamer" has to admit that he can't even tell what is and what is not a fake Norval Morrisseau and Don Robinson admits to being "fooled" 28 times when Don bought Norval Morrisseau's at Kahn Auctions!!!

Boy, oh Boy!! And these people think they are experts... What a joke

Hello SW. My family has been following the detective stories about art fraud and such on your blog with great interest. My father bought a few paintings from Norval in early 1970 when he was in the Kenora jail. I haven't had these authenticated. Is there anyone from that period that you know who could authenticate these. From what I have read about Kinsman Robinson I don't wish to use their services for that task. We were sorry to read about the sexual aberrations of Norval Morrisseau from his brothers letter and find that rather sad. I am also surprised that the NMHS don't step into the act to catalogue all paintings of our recognized native artists. That would be a huge undertaking for prolific artists like Morrisseau but well worth the expense I prefer Morrisseau's early, pre-1975 work before he was pushed by the commercial outlets to become an assembly line painter. We look forward to more expose' stories. Chad and family
