Answer 1

Hey Rebecca,

Below is a URL for a search of Artist Manley Painting. You might find him there. By adding the word Vermont to the search, I found a few other names. You need to review the sites and compare to the painting their style.

Perhaps you should call a fine arts galery also.

Answer 2

I've painted some miniature paintings where using a brush for my signature was not the way to go, plus the client requested i use my real name (first, middle, and last name) which is quite long as appose to my usual artist name. To make sure it was legible and would not distract from the paintings themselves i used a fine line sharpie marker and it worked out really well. The client got a kick out of the fact that i was able to sign the miniature paintings with miniature signature that was clearly readable. A regular pen will not work and i'd stay away from the metallic sharpies though.
