Help me please to identify an artist

I have a black and white painting of a shepherd with his sheep lit by a lantern the signature looks as though it is George Sykes or possibly George Squires I can send an email if it helps? Any ideas

There's a landscape painter by the name of George Symons. A very quick search in Google Images doesn't bring up anything similar to what you're describing, though.

I have a picture in black & white (drawing?) of two horses at a pond with one drinking. The signature also seems to be George Squires. It is inscribed to a distant relation of mine and dated 1923. I to have been searching for info without success. If you could send copy of the signature we could at least see if we are talking about the same person!
