  • I think my first thought would be how long the attic had been there. ..

    I would sell it and pay off the house.

  • Destroy it. I'm the only artist who makes master pieces.

  • If I like it, hang it on the wall, and leave it to a public gallery in my will.

    If I don't like it, take it to Christie's for auction.

    Hire an appraiser before I start making plans.

    Yeah, I've got one of those oil paintings of the dogs playing poker too. It's hanging on the wall next to the fish that sings to you when you walk by it (gotta remember to change those batteries).

  • Actually, Margarette is just the kind of person who might have a masterpiece in her attic, because her knowledge of art and ability to recognise quality would enable her to recognise things in junk shops and garage sales and buy them dirt cheap.

    I think I have it appraised and sell that sucker to the highest bidder.
