Hello All! Can anyone identify the artist of this narrow bird on a branch painting? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! David.

These prepared gold edged cards are typically used by Japanese artists. They have a particular name, which I can't remember at the moment. They are similar to the square boards, which are probably more common.

The signature is a little difficult to read quickly. I might try again later. But the seal indicates that the artist, a woman, has a family name Kitani, and what looks like a given name of Ekiko. (I am sure about the 'ko')

Thanx allot mikeoz! It is a great start! I would really appreciate it if you could translate the signature for me! Regards, David.
