African American Artist



Has anyone run across the name Randal(l) Howard Hampton or R.H. Hampton, an artist in oils who exhibited in Chicago in 1918, at the N.Y. Public Library in 1921 and with the Tanner Art League in 1922?
 
I've just found a handful of wonderful diminutive oil paintings by him in our vault. Some of the paintings have R.H. Hampton and others say Randal or Randall Howard Hampton. I could assume he was African-American, but don't know really. Please reply off list. Thanks.
