Does anyone recognize this artist?

Can you please included a full image of the front and back?

 

Is that a signature see in the bottom corner? Give us a closeup.

 

Your work appears to be decorative art. As above, additional photographs would be helpful.

Looks like it is signed Peterson? I think this artist turned up in a thread before.

 

I had a close up of the signature uploaded but I'm apparently challenged with getting it moved to this thread, LOL! So I will attach it here. At this point I can't get a backside picture because it's packed for moving. I actually should have waited to post but I was a little bored and went for it anyway. It's a slightly large piece...maybe 3.5' X 2.5'. It's oil on canvas. The family member I got it from had numerous very nice pieces that I was fortunate enough to be gifted, two of which appraised for over $4500. But they also had some very nice pieces that weren't of high value. I certainly don't want to waste anyone's time since I can't actually get to the painting for more pictures at this time.

 

Actually, it’s preferred to include the photos in the post and not in a gallery or whatever. So you inadvertently did the right thing

 

Unfortunately, your work does appear to be a mid-century commercial or "factory' painting. The type of painting that would be sold in furniture stores as room decor. They're often of a larger size which makes them useful for hanging over a sofa or fireplace. The signature on them is usually fictitious and just a nom de brosse adopted by the "artist." It does not add value which, for your work, would be decorative. A photograph of the entire back including frame would help confirm. And let's wait to hear from others.

Ditto what Debora said.

 

Thanks y’all! It’s certainly nice to have knowledgeable people to reach out to for advice.
