    My latest find at my local thrift store today! It caught my eye because the colors of this painting are different somehow - kind of like the have a tint or something?

    There are a few McKeown believe it or not, s I thought I'd ask if anyone knew this artist before I started trying to match this signature with all the other McKeown's.
    I appreciate any help.

    FOR SOME REASON THIS PAINTING'S COLORS REMINDED ME OF THE 2 PAINTINGS FROM MEXICO BELOW, BUT I CAN'T ARTICULATE WHY?

    Frank signs differently:

    David's art & signature are quite different. Hard to be sure from available photos, but Martin appears to sign M. McKeown. You could ask Geraldine through her web site.

    The signature I could make out on Geraldine was a lot longer looked like it had a copyright symbol.
    I'm looking too!
    Thanks!

    Oh good, I couldn't find a pic with the signature showing well enough to know.

    Where do you think the site of the painting is? That could be a clue...

    It may not be relevant to this McKeown, but Frank, Martin & David seem all to be Irish artists painting Irish scenes. Geraldine is in Maryland but saw one painting described as having been inspired by something she saw in Ireland, so...?

    I have a painting with the exact same signature! I sent photo to Gerry McKeown and she says it is not hers. So I am still looking. I think I confirmed with James McKeown also that it wasn’t his.

    It's probably someone who painted in their free time

    Hello, Daniel. It's not a good idea to put your personal e-mail here. You can edit it out of your post & use Conversations to send journeymagazine a private message.

    You must be in Florida as I made an offer to purchase this identical painting and frame from an individual in Florida a few months ago. Wanted it to go with the one I have by same artist. Was never able to find out who it is , but not Geraldine or James as I talked to both of them.

    Jivvy the research is my favorite

    It's possible he meant @journeymagazine painting.

    My mistake. I didn’t realize that was the original photos posted in 2017 by journeymagazine. My McKeown is by same artist, but never was able to identify

    It's super easy to miss all the dates and who posted what... I still get confused sometimes. :hilarious:

    Did anyone ever figure out who this artist is/was? I'd like to put mine on eBay & knowing the artist would help!
