Default Please help me identify the artist of a painting!

Hi there,

I picked up this painting (pics attached) in a little store in Chinatown, Vancouver as it seemed very out of place. I was hoping someone could help me ID the artist! Signature is in the bottom right corner "Winslow" painted in white. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks so much

Here's an almost identical painting that was listed in eBay a few months ago, also signed "Winslow". By "almost identical", I mean I had to examine it carefully to make sure it wasn't the same item.

Also this person is asking about a similar painting signed "Winslow". If you scroll down you can see the discussion and there's a link to a photograph of the painting. It's basically a mirror image of your painting.

These duplicates, combined with the fact that you bought your painting in Chinatown, makes me think that it comes from a mass production studio in China.
