VINTAGE? FRAMED IN '79 PRINT - DALI/PICASSO CLOWN?

I found this today hunting at my local thrift store. I can't see a signature but my first thought was Dali, Picasso - or "the silent scream" inspired!
It has a 1979 framing date on the back - and I think the customer's name.
Does anyone know who did this? Or is it just decorative?
Thanks in advance for any help!

 

NO idea, but you COULD carefully take it out of the frame to see if it IS signed?????

 

Edie Morton is an Atlanta artist.

Where did you get his name jivy? I don't see anything like it on his website?

 

doesn't look like his/her work....
but he/she shows a lot in georgia...so maybe it';s home.....where this found it's way...out of his/her possession ...

 

names on the framing sticker............ she's not saying it's the artist of your work...

 

It looks like a linoleum block print. How big is it? @journeymagazine ?

 

I am saying I think it's a place to check.

Plus, I think it's a strong possibility it's a pretty early work of Ms Morton.

 

It says it was framed for her, but it could be by another artist.

 

I totally-otally get that. For 100% assurances, framing info means pretty much zero.

Always and forever.

But I looked at her work.

And I think journey should ask.

 

No harm in asking, and who knows....

 

According to her CV, she was studying for a BFA at Manhattanville College in 1979. Which means if hers, a student work. As above. No harm asking.

well then...i mis-understood you....

 

It's okay. I understand that her current work is unlike this piece.

But there is also something very much "like", I think.

As others have said, no harm in asking.

 

I could certainly see the artist's work evolving in this way.
