Does this say "Lee Wells" on it? This work is stylistically quite different from what is largely considered to be a "conceptual" and "photo-realistic" than this work. As there are more than 100 listed artists whose last name is "Wells" I need a bit more confirmation.
Thanks!
Wes moore is the signature on the back. Those photos I sent last time have the name on the back.
This is somewhat confusing - in the description of this you say the artist is Lee Wells but in your comment you say the signature on the back is "Wes Moore." From the photos, I can make out "Wells Moore" but am not finding any listed artist - or contemporary artist by that name working in this style - so have called this American School, 20th Century.
I welcome additional information you may have on this painting.
I sent 4 pictures, hope they help
