Please help me identify this artist and artwork

Sure looks like Renoir to me...both in style and subject matter.

But not in technique. I vote motel art.

As I wrote before it 'looks like'. However, after looking around a few dozen Renoir galleries online, I can find none that show or catalogue this particular painting. Beats me if it is a Renoir, a copy-cat of his style or one that is done by the guy that does Velvet Elvis or Dogs Playing Poker.

Then again, who knows? I do vote low dollar.

I thought artists usually signed their work, so where's his/her signature on that pic?

Didn't you see the link before it disappeared?

Guess you were right!

I didn't see the sig; I thought Renoir but maybe a knockoff, I thought no, those look like California trees, didn't look further, other stuff going on at the time.

I recently saved an article to read, about not liking Renoir. Can't comment since I haven't read it yet, it's somewhere on my desk top in a folder called Art on Desk..
Me, I never particularly liked his work until I came face to face with The Boating Party painting in a small room at the Phillips Collection in Washington, DC. Changed my mind.

lol, I'm pretty sure it's not Renoir. Looks more realistic than impressionist. It doesn't have a signature that I can see, but still curious if anyone can tell me anything about it.

Maybe the sig was a clue, some artist taking off from Renoir (looks sort of like Tsomething Fleming..)

Ok, ok, I'm confused (more than usual).

There is no signature. Whoever posted the Renoir signature is joking around.

Well, anyhow...after that odd sidestep, I'm saying that after about 30 mins of researching many art site online including online Renoir sites, they don't list that as a Renoir. Now whether or not it's some other famous or infamous artist, I can't find a thing. Maybe someone else can?

From the clothing I think it was more early 20th century. It does have a California look to it or a Rockport look.
If its European I have no idea where to begin.
