Thanks Dizzydave. I will search through the link.
Thanks Brunswick. The colours used to be very vivid and bright when I was a child and that is what I liked about it then and now.
Thanks to all who "Love It".
What did you find out about your painting? I have a painting by the same artist! My parents bought it in NYC back int the 60's!

Hi Matisse,
Thanks for the info. We are trying to find the full name of the artist.
Thanks again
Were you able to find information on this artist? We have a similar painting by the same artist.
I have one of his paintings too. Bought by my parents in late 1950’s in NYC.
Norman Lewis is the artist. 1909-1979. Artsignatures.com had his full signature in their data base. Hope this helps!
I wish it were- but it is not Norman Lewis, he is an abstract artist and the signatures do not match :-(
It matched an alternate of his signatures on artistssignatures.com. IF it were to be him, I'm wondering if it was just paintings done for teaching purposes. But I agree it doesn't match his more common pieces. The art period is definitely narrowed to the early 1900s, between the 40s and 60s based on what I found and the framing type. I'm going to get it appraised by Dr.Lori V and see if she can get an identification. I'll try to remember to update after.
I got my piece looked at and it was estimated to be early pieces from Australian artist Ted Lewis. He has a website and a contact form if you want to ask him directly. He's been doing large oil landscapes for over 30 years, so worth a shot.
