I was talking to a woman named aeisha buntin from Hawaii as she had some artwork by Ota Masamitsu for sale I asked her if she was interested in trying to sell the piece for me and she told me that the artist was not Ota Masamitsu that it wasn’t his signature and it wasn’t his quality of work is there anything that I can do in order to authenticate the piece? I would really like to preserve it if it is a work by Ota because I feel as if his work should be better appreciated in the art world

Thank you for any help you can provide
Richard Blevins
