These are amateur reproductions of real paintings, for home decoration. If you can, try to identify them by content.

Answer 2

Neither one is signed and it would be almost impossible to tell you who did these because they obviously are not by a recognizable artist.

The first one was done by an amateur, or beginner, with limited skills as a painter. It is pretty enough to look at if you don't pay attention to it's flaws (like the poorly shaped horse).

The second painting is certainly more original, more creative, as if someone were playing with their own version of Vincent Van Gogh brush strokes. What's interesting is the change in style from the clouds to the Van Gogh landscape brush strokes. This painting was also probably done by a beginner who was seeking their own creative voice. Of the two, the second one is certainly more interesting.

(Read closely what you asked and how I answered before deciding to give me another thumbs down for being right.
Neither one of these paintings were down by known artists.

When you asked your original question, before you provided added details, I gave you the right answer. Even after adding your details I still gave you the only right answer so far. You asked who these paintings were by. You did not ask which artists these people were trying to copy. You asked who these paintings were by. Because they're not signed we can not tell you who these amateur 'studies' are by.)

Answer 3

Seurat (by the figure of the woman and the cow)?
Van Gogh?
I don't have a reputation but if I did I wouldn't stake it on these answers.
