Thanks for your time, first off.
I recently came into possession of a painting that my family has had for sometime. It should help that the artist signature is on the painting and appears to be " Valentine " but as it is not an extremely original name I can't get much traction. If you have anywhere you can point me toward, it would be greatly appreciated.

@ckat,
See if it could be any of these artists.

Tourist/decorator art. Up to US$500.00. Looks about late fifties - mid sixties. Painted on Masonite with a very inexpensive frame. The signature looks like a marker. So maybe a later mark or the painting might be closer to mid sixties to mid seventies. Either way not anybodies major work, but a nice little painting.
