This morning 9am there was still frost on the lawn. Inside the bus it was 2 deg, inside the house was 11 deg. The day just got better, the sun was out and the baby bird sat up and got a few rays waiting for the parents to bring more food. I cleaned out the bird cages then had a burn off of bits and pieces that had blown around from the storms last week.

Does anyone speak ? Chinese or can read this signature on a print I have?

Maybe. Unomrale. or. Unomsale

Funny place to sign a print.

Unomrak

Japanese painter.

She is very well known in Southern Japan near the island of Okinowa. The American base is there and she's taught many US soldiers how to paint.

There was a big article a few years ago in the English news how her work had been copied by some soldiers and flogged off to oversees buyers.

Anyway, her work was generally of foresty green scenes, sometimes where the work extened down to the sea and villages.

Quiet famous in Japan.

Ok, mystery solved.

Thanks Jd, knew some one here would know I have 3 of the prints they are all fishing scenes, villages on the sea front.

probably of okinowa.

If they are a set, they could be quite famous.

Does the handwriting look American or Japanese?


Some of the American ones are worth a penny too because the hight trained solders thought they were in Korea and added "printen in Korea" on them.

I shall get a couple of pics for you tomorrow Jon.

ok. try and see if the signatures are the same or if they vary

One for Terry & Margaret.
