These are just 3 of hundreds and hundreds of original paintings done by mum’s dad Edwin J. Willey around Oxfordshire England in the1940s, 50s, and 60s. He sold hundreds to American Airmen stationed here in England during and after WW 2. I have watched eBay for a few years but haven’t found any more. If anyone ever finds one, please buy it and I will reimburse you and pay shipping to get it back.
Last two pics are how he signed the paintings.
Interesting - Edwin J Willey is my granddad -

Posted by SkotlandSkyeAfter @John_Tyrrell found the paintings by mum’s dad online yesterday (see previous post in the comments) I showed them to mum and she said “I know that house!!!” So we went to see it today.
