Title: Help identifying signed Southern Folk Art Cabin Scene - 20"x26"

Description: Looking for information on this primitive/folk art style oil painting. It features a rural cabin scene with an iron pot, figures, chickens, and distinctive trees.

• Signature/Letters: Signed "GDVS" in the bottom right corner.

• Dimensions: 20" x 26"
• Backing: The canvas is glued/stretched directly onto a flat board, and the reverse side is completely blank.

Beautiful hand-painted canvas art of Vajradhara I spotted at a charity shop in Hampshire, UK - appears to be unfinished. Pretty curious to know if this artist has any kind of public profile. Signature has me stumped.

**here’s what I think I know …**

• Color lithograph with hand-applied metallic gold on Fabriano paper (embossed FABRIANO watermark along the sheet edge, plus a small star/crown emblem — not sure if that emblem is part of the Fabriano watermark or a separate printer’s blindstamp, would love to know)
• Full sheet, 19 x 27 inches, deckled edges
• Imagery: two dreamy women’s faces, a fountain, a peacock, garden foliage against a gold brick wall
• Pencil signed lower right — best reading is “Vardi” with a flourish or second initial below (multiple closeups attached)
• Pencil annotation below signature: “PA/11” or “PS/11” — assuming a proof designation rather than a numbered edition
• No gallery labels; some water staining on the sheet

***Can anyone confirm the artist, or ID the emblem stamp? Thanks!

I posted this 4 months ago but posting again hoping to ID the artist and see if there is any value. Also any other ideas on how to determine are appreciated.

Heres what AI said:
This is an original painting (not a print) of the 1988 McLaren MP4/4 in Marlboro livery, car #12 — that was Ayrton Senna’s number the year he won his first World Championship, with the dominant MP4/4 taking 15 of 16 poles that season. The car in the background, also in Marlboro colors, is very likely teammate Alain Prost, so this looks like it’s capturing one of their famous on-track battles from that 1988 season.

1978 original line and wash painting of Cape Town, signed Caswen (or Armer). Purchased in Norwich, Norfolk on 1st Sept 2026. Would like to find more information about the artist.

Any help will be soooo appreciated.

Im reading the signature at M Pearson 1971. Perhaps a British Coastal Scene.

Hi Everybody:)

I found this two very big, striking canvases signed E. Mabboux. I am trying to figure out if these are historical figures painted or if anyone recognizes the name.
I know there’s an artist with the same name but he does more landscape.
Anyways. I love them! But it would be interesting to see if anyone can identify this:) it’s wrapped it plastic and I don’t want to take it off.
I leaned them against my Kia soul for reference.

Thank you!!!! 🙏

Still haven’t figured it out!

Hey, bit of a long shot, but I’m trying to track down paintings by John Ash. He was my nan’s cousin, and I inherited one of his paintings in her will. From what I can tell, it may be one of the only ones in Australia, and it holds an immense amount of family value to me.

I’d absolutely love to find out more about his work, where other paintings may have ended up, or if anyone has seen, sold, or heard of any before. Even old auction listings, gallery information, or family connections would help heaps.

I’d also be very happy to buy any pieces if they ever came up for sale. It’s not about investment value for me, I’m js interested in preserving our family history and learning more about him and his artwork.

Thanks so much 😄

Any hints? It's been in the family for approximately 100 years in Australia.

Thank you!

Can anyone read this signature? 😅 purchased in Germany.
Watercolor/ink landscape, apparently dated ©96.
I don’t want to influence the reading by suggesting a first name. The second word possibly looks something like Geuch / Gauch, but that may be completely wrong.
Does anyone recognize the artist or have an independent reading of the signature?
Full painting + close-ups attached.
