Help! Brussels, Grand Place - Artists

Help!
I just returned back from our vacation (trip report to follow in a few days)

I lost our artwork that we just purchased in Brussels, Grand Place. There were 2 artists while we were there, one women did watercolor work and the other gentlemen did drawing/painting right next door to her.

Does anyone know his name? How to reach him? I want to try to get another piece. It was my favorite souvernior to put in our new house -- I am in tears thinking that it is long gone lost in London's Heathrow Airport.

I will be passing through the Grand'Place this afternoon. If they are working there, I'll try and get his details.I'll also take a look and see what they're displaying. You can email me privately: anthonyREMOVETHISatcompuserve.com (sorry for the convoluted address, trying to prevent spam trawlers) with details about the type of artwork you purchased, price, etc.

Shorly after writing this post, I tried a few different phone numbers at LHR.
Guess what? They have the poster roll with the drawing/painting in it. I have to call another number at the airport today in about another hour to arrange for delivery.
Who would have thought?

Thanks for your help.

We have 2 pieces of art on our living room wall from artists from the Grand Place.It is one of the finest old town squares in the world.

Well we called today, and paid for the post; hopefully it will arrive in excellent condition in the next 5-7 days. I am praying...

Grand Place was our favorite spot during our 11 days, and to have a piece of art to take home and look at daily, surley will make the memories last forever.

I still can not get over how beautiful that square is - as well as St. Micheals.

To wishing we were in Grand Place eating some Mussels and drinking some beer...
