Artist: Josephine Wall
Please visit her site Here

I know there was some question if she was the actual artist as this picture was not on her website.  Two kind ladies wrote to me and
one of the ladies showed me where there was Jo in one corner.  I have looked at other paintings of hers and there is Jo in the corner.
Clearly this painting is Ms Wall's and I am happy to give her credit as it is a gorgeous painting.
Thank you for helping me identify the true artist!!
