Decipher name please

[Jokdy]

Can anyone help decipher the name please? It’s from a landscape painting from my mum’s house. She sadly passed away last year. I’m certain she was gifted the painting by a local amateur artist and if they’re still alive I’d love to try and get in touch with them but I’m struggling to work out their name.

Is this any better

If it is by a local amateur artist, you could ask around any local artists, to see if they recognise the work and/or the signature.

The application of the paint in that small snip, suggests that the artist was skilled in the watercolour technique.

Doesn't look like a D but the rest of the first name looks like David and the surname starting Hodg perhaps.

Where is "local" please - what town or village was it?

[Neale1961]

I thought the first name might be “Gavin”.
Second name could be “Hodginson”

[Gadget]

I'd go with Gavin and  H

but - OP hasn't responded since I posted on Monday although was on yesterday at 22.16 (BST)

I saw the surname as Molyneaux now I can’t see anything else. 

[Jokdy]

Thank you for your suggestions everyone. I too thought Gavin H but I’m still unsure.

The scene is of Dysart harbour in Fife.

Gadget, I might just go with your suggestion to contact some local artists. No harm in trying anyway.

There are quite a few artists' groups in that area.  I did some research on artists there in the late 1980s-1990s. I'm a bit rusty now though.
