Identify Avante Studios and/or Artist Signature - Oil Painting

This oil painting endorsed on the back as Avante Studios, Inc. is a mystery to me. From what I know, my parents acquired it in the 60s, and as you see, the subject matter definitely embodies the owl craze of the era. Can anyone help identify the studio, artist, or value? Any information is welcome and appreciated. Thank you!

Yes, I do know what you mean by the "owl" craze that happened during the late 1960's! My mom was crazy about and collected about anything that concerned owls. No guarantees here, but we will do some checking on the information that is available and get back to you. Thanks!

Great! Thank you, Clough - Any information will be greatly appreciated. Last night, my mother confirmed they bought it at Davidson's Furniture in Little Rock, Arkansas shortly after my folks' wedding in the late 1960s. It would be fun and interesting to know more about it or the artist - The painting was part of my earliest of memories. Thanks!
