Red face can anyone help me figure out who painted this?

I was out driving yesterday and found this painting at the curb. I really like it. It's pretty big. Nothing on the back. It's black velvet stretched into the frame (which looks hand made)
I can't read the signature at all. Looks to be oil on velvet. I would appreciate any help I can get!
Also, on a side note, does anyone know anything about marwal ind inc?? I have a tiger statue of theirs and can't find any info about them.
heres some pics of the painting
thanks for looking and any help you can offer me

Wild guess at the signature... "Moire"? (With an accent over the e)

thanks, I googled it.
Not seeing anything conclusive yet.
This is frustrating. I'm an artist and I ALWAYS sign my work legibly.
grr..
I thought it would be easy seeings that its signed in the lower left and on velvet...but that isn't as unusual as I thought it was

Default Marwal Tiger

Do you still have the Marwal tiger? If so, I have some answers for you.
