Antique California Plein Air Impressionist Oil Painting, Mystery Signed

This is a beautiful early Antique California Plein Air Impressionist Landscape Oil Painting on artist's board, depicting a lush California landscape scene, with an artist and easel visible in the foreground. Several trees encircle him on the left and right of the painting. This work is painted in a highly impressionistic manner, and clearly in the palette knife technique so famously mastered by Paul Cezanne and others. This work is signed in the lower right corner: Lee Colene or Lee Collins? But so far I have had no leads with my interpretation.

Perhaps you recognize the artist? Approximately 15 7/8 x 19 7/8 inches.

This painting is in good condition, with some minor paint loss and edge wear due to age please see photos. This work approximately dates to the 1930's - 1940's. If you like what you see, I encourage you to make an Offer.
