<p>[QUOTE="Debora, post: 9426667, member: 1476"]Hello, Lauren! Your work does appear to be of the "Hang and Enjoy" school. It's a decorative painting rather than fine art in which case the signature is a <i>nom de brosse</i> and won't lead to a real artist. Many of these now come out of China. They can often be identified by an over-elaborate frame, the subject (e.g. ocean + lighthouse + picket fence) and the quick brushstrokes with which they've been executed. Here's one similar to yours but a bit older (1960s/1970s.) </p><p><br /></p><p>Debora </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]434206[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
