The Jo Kotula Portrait
Once known mainly as an unidentified estate portrait, this signed Jo Kotula artwork now carries a trail through Manila in December 1941, an apparent ’47 date, the Mohr Art Galleries label, and the estate of Brigadier General Robert Benton Neely. Its three subjects remain unidentified—and its research story remains open.
The original artwork is now offered on eBay for its next steward.

Personal art joins the collection.
A single eye, a turquoise tear, and an expression that leaves room for the viewer’s own story. This original framed drawing is part of Whit’s personal creative work—an example of how GNU Found Art reaches beyond estate discoveries into imagination and making.
The framed drawing became the starting point for the animation below—moving the image beyond the paper while keeping its singular, handmade character.
