Re: Help me identify signature on a painting.

Could the "Hidemine" be meant to read in English, "hide mine"? The English "Japan" suggests the artist is English-speaking. The initials "S. K." are probably those of the artist.

The painting may have no connection with Japan than the painter was there when the work was done, and had a Japanese-English dictionary to get the intriguing characters.

I cannot speculate why the painter wanted to not identified.

Good luck,
Cal
