I have an oil painting that I believe is an original by Dino Massaroni. How do I go about finding a buyer?

I believe the painting is Sierra Sunrise, if not the it’s Reflection at Yosemite Park. Positive it’s an oil on canvas, it is signed and dated. I do not have an paper work with it because I picked it up at a yard sale from someone who did not know what they had. Looking for a good price but not shooting for a huge payday. Painting frame is not original, in fact it is now in a metal frame with a glass front. There are two glue strips down the back side where it might have had something attached. It also has two small water spots from being stored poorly in the two upper corners, they might be able to be cleaned off but have not tried. Do not think its a Litho because it is not numbered in any way that I could find.

I can’t believe that no one looked for him online.
Here you go,sites,biography, and some lists of his work;

You could try to E-mail him and ask him what his work is going for?;

http://www.google.com/search?num=50&hl=en&domains=en.wikipedia.org&q=+Painter+Dino+Massaroni&btnG=Search&sitesearch=

It may be quite valuable so I would not consider selling it on
E-Bay. You could research a little on the site if you wanted to but I would recommend the following sites for info. and pricing.They should be able to help you further but as previously mentioned, get good photos of your piece.
