I have seen two (IMHO) incredibly cool prints in a restaurant recently. I asked the host about the artist, unfortunately he had no idea.

The style is pretty unique, so I believe the artist created more than just these two. Is there any community that could help me find her/him?

Yeah, you’re probably outta luck then. The only other idea I’d have is busting open the frame to see if there’s a signature somewhere. It could be in a bottom corner or even on the back. But that restaurant probably won’t let you bust open their framed art.

It’s possible it was just some guy that the parents in law knew. They may have never sold any work

Could be. My sister studied art up to a level (didn't go to uni or art college) but I think she draws/paints for some people in her free time. Her influence when doing art at GCSE and a level was a local artist called Terry Bradley who has a very distinct style, I think she would style paint that way now. she doesn't publicize that she does artwork as far as I'm aware.

I believe it's an offset print of some kind, which needs a lot of preparation.
