Watercolor on paper painting of redwood, sequoia or pine tree trunk in a forest, unframed, 9 1/4" by 7 3/4", signed at lower left "Mary Inez Tidwell". The work is possibly a fragment, as the top edge and right edge in particular seem to indicate that there might have been more painting at one time; however, there are pin holes in the upper corners and indications of round tacks having been there, so possibly the painting is as originally created...

Etching, 6 1/2" by 8 3/4" (12 1/2" by 15" in modern frame), pencil signed by the artist at lower right, titled at lower left "Sunset--Gowanus Bay", the subject a ship in dry dock, other shipping visible in the distance beyond the muddy shore.

A small sketch in ink and watercolor on paper, mounted on cardboard, showing a street scene with automobiles, maybe in Teheran. Signed "Sevruguin". The authorship is not obvious: either Antoine-Khan Sevruguin (1840-1933) a pioneer of photography in the late 19th century Persia or his son André "Darvish" Sevrugian, who studied painting in Paris. Dimension: 12.8 x 23.8 cm (cardboard: 19.6 x 31.5 cm)...

Colorful, interesting watercolor with a modernist, almost Expressionist feeling, unsigned, 16" by 12" (23" by 17" in present frame). There is a label on the backing from the Fenway Art Center in Boston, which was run by two listed artists, Richard and Giragos Der Garabedian, leading me to believe that this could have been work by one of them, even though the style/subject does not fit with their known works...

Oil on canvas painting executed in an impressionist style showing small rowboats on a lake in a park, 8" by 10" and 14" by 16" as framed, signed at lower right by listed artist LOUISE RICHARDSON DODD. The artist is listed in the Davenport art dictionary but I have found no other information on her. I would lean towards her being an east coast artist. This is a lovely scene, perhaps of a lake one would find in a large park...

The drawing was purchased in Newport, Rhode Island, the seller telling me it came out of an estate there, where it was suggested to him that the artist was Rhode Island impressionist artist Helena Sturtevant (1872-1946), but it is unlikely that that could be...

Oil on Masonite painting of coastal rocks and waves, framed in an interesting and appealing vintage wood frame, signed at lower right by artist J. Wessely. I do not see a listing for the artist, who created an attractive and dynamic composition. The painting measures 18" by 24" (22 3/4" by 28 3/4" framed). It could date to about the early 1950's, judging from frame and board. The frame has a rugged, "Cabin Art" feeling with bold outdoorsy carving. It shows some moderate wear which could lik...

Fernand Guinier 1906-1972 Monte Saint Michel 12x16” Watercolor in a beautiful baroque goldleaf Frame. The artist was well known in the Montmartre area of Paris.

PAIR of unsigned watercolors from Japan, one featuring a seaside beacon or shrine, the other small boats along a coast, a volcano (possibly Mt. Fuji) in the distance. The works were found intact and identically framed, but in shipping one frame essentially broke apart and may not be serviceable at this point. One painting measures 4 1/4" by 11 1/2", the other slightly smaller at 3 3/4" by 10 3/4" (and that one 9 3/4" by 17 1/2" framed). The framing seems to have been done since they were in t...

Anne Lane studied art at George mason University in Virginia, completed her education at Saint Patrick’s college, Ireland, where she studied theology and philosophy. The tonal and contemplated intensity of her paintings reflect her 10 years spent working as an artist under the desert sun of New Mexico. Her vibrant style,resonant with color and baroque in detail,swoons its delight over her canvases. The subjects and themes of her art, reflect her fascination with people, particularly the phycho...

Oil on masonite, 18" by 24", (23" by 29" as framed), the subject a copper kettle on a small wooden stand on a table, with a cup and saucer, small blue milk pitcher and poinsettia in a decorative blue vase filling out the scene. The painting is signed at lower right "L. Johnson". I do not seem to be able to connect this to any listed artist so am offering it as a decorative work. It was found in San Diego, and the poinsettia suggests a California origin. Frame is vintage and no doubt origina...

Such paintings were popular souvenirs that went home with Grand Tour visitors at the turn of the century. On the reverse of the moonlight scene a co...

A large graphite on heavy paper drawing, likely a sketch study for a subsequent painting, 18" by 24" (26 1/2" by 32" framed), signed at lower right and titled "USS Los Angeles" by the artist, the noted California-associated, British-born artist ARTHUR EDWAINE BEAUMONT (1890-1978).

I do not see a li...

There is a listing for an Archie Sinclair (1895-), a student of Henry Keller. Sinclair is listed in many reference works.
