    We have a lot of posts from folks who can't make out an artist signature. I was at a local gallery over the weekend at a jazz recital and sat next to this painting. After everyone fries their brain trying to figure out what it says I'll post the answer. :)

    The search was hard for me to pinpoint the artist, but I got it.
    There is no reading it.

    Oh, that mud is dark!
    But it seems to associate with the picture's title.

    No prayer of reading that. I wonder if she labels her stretchers with something legible.

    Since I work with colored pencils I kept seeing Derwent except for the obvious t in the middle.
