    Its not the kind of thing he is known for, but it's a Kandinsky - Autumn in Bavaria.

    I would have never guessed that... I mean, I suppose I could see it in choices of color, but that's about it. I like this side of him. Great job to both of you. :]

    Not that I'm shocked in any way, mind you...
    I decided to bring a little levity into the thread and it seems to have worked.
    The artist is making a living out of painting male fantasies though I doubt that any of her work will be exhibited in a major gallery. The Tate Modern might conceivably show some examples, as they seem to accept anything there.

    An absolutely marvelous painter... sadly far less known than he should be.

    Hmm...?
    I'm trying.
    Must be American, or at least the subject landscapes given the flag and the house architecture.
    The first few look like the northeast region, but the last one looks like it could be from southwest such as river valleys in New Mexico.

    American Impressionist. Northeast. I've driven through this region of the US any number of times in the winter and the artist has brilliantly captured the colors, the architecture, the landscape, etc...

    Grandma Moses couldn't paint this well if her life depended upon it. Next clue: Pennsylvania.

    Daniel Garber 'Bayou' 1935 - this artist is not one of well-known painters in Europe, I must say.

    Here is something to find out.
