It was falling out of the frame and I had to disassemble and re-mount the print. In the process, I found the artist name and title printed on the back. It is smudged but I was able to see enough to figure this is by listed artist Steven Strickland (b 1948 ). Good thing, as the signature is impossible. I still can not make out the title and can find no other works from this series. Any help in this regard is appreciated. Most of what I am finding are much more abstract.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]459840[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]459841[/ATTACH]</p><p>[ATTACH=full]459843[/ATTACH]</p><p>Enhanced...</p><p>[ATTACH=full]459844[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Also part of the 3 piece buy, could figure maybe $8.00 for this one.
