ART RESEARCH
I have an oil painting by an artist from Arkansas of my great uncle George Rich Peet from Hot Springs, he was a barber there near the college. The painting is of him leaning against a wooden "fence" at an auction.  The artist felt his face had character in his face and he is holding a cane.  George was born in 1889 and died in Hot Springs in September 1966.  In the bottom right hand corner there is writing.  Two words are shown and the bottom one looks like springs.  The top word looks like OSLOSE. It is not clear so I am not sure.  Any suggestions on who the artist could be or how I can find out who it was painted by.  It was probably painted when George was in his 30's to early 40's.
