This is a piece that we received after our memaw passed away and we framed it. When I was in college years ago I took it in to my art class and the teacher said that it looked like it was done in acid on silk maybe but was unsure.
I have since tried to find information on it but have had no luck.
Does anyone out there know who the artist is and where I might could find information on them. I would like to know also what place this might be and if it is a real place.
I know that memaw went all around the world and there is no telling were she got it.
Thank you.
