Six small (postcard size) pen and ink drawings of Lake Chapala came into my possession a year or two ago. Their quality is undeniable (see the two shown below), but I have yet to identify the artist. They are believed to date from 1968.
‘Daniel.’ ca. 1968. Line drawings.
All six line drawings are signed ‘daniel’ (all lower case):
If you recognize this signature or this artist, please get in touch!
