This is a drawing that I found at an art auction last year of household effects. I cannot make out the signature. Maybe it says Shinoski or some other Japanese name. Not sure. But it appears to be some sort of chalk or pastel paint. It seems fashion related. It measures 35 inches by 30 inches in the frame.

Dear Rhonda,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. So that I may best assist you, can you please upload a better image of the signature? Can you see anything written on the reverse of the work?
Thanks,
Karine
Dear Rhonda,
Thank you for your swift reply.
The item presented appears to be an original fashion print in colour, and the edition is 67/120. Executed in 1984 it measures with frame 30"(h) x 35"(w). The work is signed on the lower right by the artist. The condition appears to be good overall.
Unfortunately, I had some trouble deciphering the artist's signature, I am afraid. Therefore, the estimate provided is based on recent auction estimates and results of similar prints without artist attribution, dating from the 1980s to the 1990s. The current condition (based on photographs provided) has been taken into consideration when determining the estimate.
Best regards,
Karine
Hello Karine:
I attached three images. One is a better wide shot of the piece that someone else took for me. The others are the writing on the left with the number and then the signature on the right. Thank you,
Rhonda,
