<p>[QUOTE="Jeff Drum, post: 1751006, member: 6444"]I don't disagree with your conclusion. And I really decided to hold onto these based solely on the still life, which I really like a lot. (That plus the fact that I generally suffer from being a packrat - which I think is not unusual here). I thought the landscape was interesting mostly for the signature, in case anyone could make headway on who this might be. I do think that the Marthas Vineyard suggestion that figtree found is more likely than someone in Ireland, though I would love to find a signature by either one to compare this to.</p><p><br /></p><p>One final note, just like all of us, artists have good days and bad days. The canal scene could just be a bad day, or an attempt to try something outside of his normal wheelhouse, or work very quickly, who knows. I won't pretend to know much about art or how difficult it can be to make a piece work, but my daughter got her degree from RISD so I think I do have some appreciation for how hard it can be.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
