Folk Art Landscape Oil Painting

This is an original landscape painting executed in oil or acrylic on a rectangular canvas. The composition features a white farmhouse with brown shutters set amidst a vibrant, multicolored flower garden in the foreground. Adjacent to the main house is a smaller rustic wooden structure. The scene is bisected by a winding blue stream or pond, with a small bridge or cart nestled among trees on the right. A prominent street lamp and a white bench are situated along the floral path. The sky is rendered in varying shades of blue and white, suggesting a partially cloudy day. Physically, the canvas shows a visible texture characteristic of mid-to-late 20th-century mass-produced art supplies. There is a handwritten signature or inscription in the upper right-hand corner, though the specific name is difficult to decipher from the image. The condition appears fair; there is some visible rippling in the canvas, particularly towards the bottom edge, indicating it may be loose on its stretchers or affected by humidity. The brushwork is naive or folk in style, characterized by dabbing techniques for the numerous flowers and simplified architectural forms. The lack of complex atmospheric perspective suggests it is the work of an amateur or hobbyist artist, likely created between the 1970s and 1990s.
