<p>[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 9575345, member: 33"]The artist may be Irene Karuva of Zimbabwe. She signs her works Irene, and I found an ebay listing for one of her items that has a similar handwritten paragraph on a separate piece of paper on the back:</p><p><a href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/126025805029" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.ebay.com/itm/126025805029" rel="nofollow">https://www.ebay.com/itm/126025805029</a></p><p><br /></p><p>The bus in the original posted painting has "Mukute" in one of the windows. I found that there is a Mukute art gallery in Zimbabwe that also gives classes, and there is a catalog of works online that includes one by Irene Karuva. It will open as a pdf (yes, I know some won't want to click). If anybody is interested, her work and some info about her is on image 55 of 164.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://imagomundi-wp.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/catalogues-pdf/catalogue-zimbabwe.pdf" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://imagomundi-wp.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/catalogues-pdf/catalogue-zimbabwe.pdf" rel="nofollow">https://imagomundi-wp.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/catalogues-pdf/catalogue-zimbabwe.pdf</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Here is an article that features Irene.
