    Am I just blind?

    I can make out some of the letters but no amount of googling has helped. I've guessed every name that has popped into my head that it could be and still nothing.

    Now I'm sure it's just an amateur artist and there's nothing further to be found out about this painting BUT I don't KNOW, right? I mean, I could stumble upon a famous piece of art, sit at my computer and try to figure out wtf the signature says, give up in frustration and never know.

    Do you develop an eye for this kind of thing?! Is there a website that has a directory of artists so I can throw my guesses at something more substantial than google?


    Halp!

    Don't think it matters much and the signature may be purposefully illegible. Looks like a factory painting to me.
