any ideas?

I have a piece that may be a print, yet it also looks like it could be a watercolor. It is a winter scene with a barn and a large tree, with a long length of split rail fencing in the snow. The signature is hard for me to figure out. It could be soujanni- maybe soujarri...soojarni....? Dated 1992. Not quite sure, it is very hard to read. Does anyone have any input, or any idea what the name on this could be? I can not add pictures as the file size is too big. I can e-mail them if you ask. Thanks!

If you send it to me I'll upload it. My email address is here:

...P.S. In your email, remind me the thread is called "any ideas", so I'll be able to find it again. All the threads in the "Questions" forum have such similar titles that it's a mess.

Here is the painting and 2 versions of the signature, from the 2 pictures Christine sent:

P.S. To me it looks like "B Soutani 1982", but although Soutani is a real name, I have had no luck identifying any such artist.
