Vintage watercolor, An Ice Skating Lady

I just was not able to pass on this painting. Something is so touching about this little lady ice skating in the wind. I don't know who's work it is or the name of the painting and was wondering if any of you are able to help me.
I can see that it's a limited edition and was made in 1983 but I can not recognize the painter's name. I will love this painting even if I will not know it but I am curious. Please let me know if you recognize it.

Thank you to everyone who contacted me regarding this painting. I now know that this is the work of Pat Buckley Moss. I found 2 previous editions of this painting Solitary skater online but mine is slightly different and I still did not find the identical one. I assume this might be the third edition, or maybe, fourth? Please let me know if you know anything about this - thank you!

I believe the artist is P. Buckley Moss. Several of these drawings were adapted to cross stitch, probably in the 1970's. This may have been one of the ones that was adapted. Great find!

Oh thank you so much, Stitching Cat! I am already going through P. Buckley Moss gallery to see what I have.

The watercolor is lovely: I would have to buy it, too. It is very touching, you are right.
