A striking small size abstract painting, mixed media (I think gouache and some oil or acrylic), 10" by 20", signed at lower right and again on reverse backing "GEO. JUNG". I thought at first that this might be a "pen name" for George Chann, a well-known and important Chinese-American artist who created similar-looking works, but now from further research I believe this to be by a California contemporary artist, there being at least one work online similarly signed...

For the fans of the "Big Eye" paintings, here is a pair of mid century retro style works in oil on board, each 23 1/2" by 11 1/4", and each signed at lower right.

Regardless of authorship, these are sure to please the devoted big eye collector...
