Featured Unsigned oil

Why wouldn't you put your name on this? Don't know.

Anyway, 7.5" x 16" oil on board.

Looks quality to me, but I'd love to hear if you agree.

All comments welcomed and appreciated.

 

Oh, yes. Someone knew what s/he was doing. Shamed it's not signed.

artists are a strange lot !!!

 

Might have been a study for a larger painting.Palette knife I believe this style is called. I like it.

 

I think you might be right on both counts @johnnycb09. Thanks for the comments.

 

@Potteryplease, I think it's entirely possible that it COULD be signed.....I enlarged some of the area of the lower part of the VERY LIGHT mountains, and there are some letters in there.....I marked two areas with the arrows....the larger arrow looks like there might be 'A D', and the smaller arrow it looks like there's a distinctive 'B' with some possible letters after, however, I couldn't bring them 'out'. AND sometimes I AM wrong!!!!!!!!!! You may need to find the area where it looks like an 'E', then locate where I turned it green on my enlarged area........YOUR 2nd image down is the one I enlarged the portion of.....

Thank you for your detective work @Aquitaine! You do that so well. In looking more closely in that area, I'm not seeing anything that looks clearly like letters. There's a texture to the under-lying base paint, and that may be what we're seeing.

 

Ditto.

 

I like it as well.

If it was meant as a piece of commercial art, the name might have been deliberately omitted.

 

Looks modernist! 60's or 70's???? I really like it a lot!

 

Bought a $3 frame today and cut it down to fit this guy. Not perfect, but for $3, pretty ok.

 

that's nice.....simple....let's the mountain shine !!

 

Thanks @komokwa!

 

Well chosen. It makes the colors pop.

 

I like that frame with it, too. Nice!

 

I'd say pretty near perfect for this painting. Good eye and good job.

 

Why, thank you all!!!!
