    Your close up of the signature is too blurry for me to read, but it's a lovely decorative painting. I cannot read whatever is stamped on the back either.

    Are you using a scanner to capture images or something else? I'm afraid your pictures are not focused enough to provide useful information.

    I would be interested to know if the stamp on the back says anything about Mexico.

    Says. This is an original oil painting something by the artist in all caps. Nothing about mexico.

    I am surprised it says nothing about Mexico, but it seems to fall into a category of pieces that do come from Mexico (at the very least use frames made in Mexico).

    I even wonder if there is a stamp under the tape.

    The pieces I've seen are either on board (like yours) or sloppily stapled canvas. The frames all have nearly identical construction (like what I can see of yours).

    Frames with linen liners are common.

    And the paintings are all of a single vase of flowers with at least some thick application of paint (such as the white flowers in yours).

    I suspect there was (is?) a home decor factory either in Mexico or using Mexican frames.

    And that the person that painted these flowers worked at a piece rate.

    If you check ebay for sold listings ("Robert Cox paintings" is a good search), you will find these usually sell in the $25-$50 price range. Occasionally, one will break the $100 mark.
