Should work now. Too cursive for me to make out much though.

龍山

ryuuzan or maybe ryouzan? I'm not knowledgeable about this stuff but I guess it's the name of the guy who painted it

Looks like LongShan to me too. (dragon mountain)

The second one looks like ____Feng (something wind). The left character's left hand stroke suggests the "hand" (Heisig's "finger") radical. It almost looks like Wo (RTK -> Ego).

Looks like 我風 to me too. Gafuu I guess if you read it in the Japanese way
