    hi all

    another blinking watercolour, i want to find rich thick impressionistic oil paintings but all i seem to find are watercolours :(

    seem quite proficient though, and they always seem to sell, if i can find location

    any help with possible location would be a great help, ive tried searching clock towers but cant seem to find anything close

    taken it apart no marks or sigs

    any help appreciated

    Promenade clock and apparently they're not unusual in the UK.

    A very competent watercolor, Charlie. Is it small in scale? Nothing on the back? Do you have any sense at all where it might be?

    Hi deb

    It's 11 1/2 inches by 7

    No info at all, but modern framing

    Just a hunch, but I would think the Apple hasn't fallen far from the tree, in terms of location, maybe Torquay ?

    You may well be right re apple & tree. Try Exmouth. (If it is, a bit romanticized.)

    You hate it when your younger cause you look so different

    It's only when you look back, and see the beauty of it !!

    Man, I'd love to get back into painting, writing music and creating the things that I would like to find

    But since I've been on antidepressants I don't really have that depth of emotion to create anything

    Since I started, nothing

    Charlie.....I really don't want to mess it up.....I tried a bit....but there are other thin dark lines, so I stopped....I brightened it a bit too.....you or someone else can enlarge it a bit more and see if you/someone can figure it out!! @anundverkaufen is ALWAYS pretty good at it!!!

    One more, but I think @i need help just might have gotten it!!!! There's also more writing off to the right side of the tree, but I think that's pretty unreadable!!!

    Amazing aqui

    So helpful, looks more like Madison

    Usually with these types, I find the location is more of a selling point than the artist, but always good to try and find the artist

    what does it say on the wall of the house in the R/H background ?
    from the surroundings it looks rather on a lake than on the seaside.

    Hi Fid

    I thought it looked like something was written there too, like a hotel name or something, but it's indistinguishable
