Please assist with reading this mark
I am able to read the bottom character as "made" but am unable to identify the others. A kind assist would be most welcomed.

I doubt it, as the sig looks different. Then again, my signatures on my works vary nearly every time i sign. If it is , however, the person you have linked to, it's a she:
http://www.nihonbijutsu-club.com/ando/?page=profile There is no seal on the item you have, is there? Also it would be helpful to know what kind of art she is into. The artist you linked to paints flowers, hence her 雅号 (alias) - Flower (petal) Vessel (華舟). |
幸舟 作?
Is it a signature written in what kind of work? |

edit: ok i had a look into the calligraphy dictionary and it does look closer to 幸 than 華. Two dots cut through the bottom line of the 土、which is then extended and curved (for whatever reason). That kanji is badly disfigured. |
