Up for sale is the Holy Grail piece of art of world famous folk artist MOSE TOLLIVER! LOOK AT THE PICTURES IN DETAIL AND SEE WHY IT WAS PAINTED WITH GREAT DETAILS THAT MAKE IT DIFFERENT THAN HIS OTHER MOOSE LADIES. Internationally known as maybe the most important artist of the southern United States. He is shown world wide including at the Metropolitan Museum in New York City and the Smithsonian. He passed away in 2006 and his work is gaining even more fame with the demand of major collectors. That is how I came to know Mose. He had a passion for cold beer and we would go beer runs for him. Some weeks after some guy talk and joking around , he said he had painted a inspired masterpiece. A New Orleans dealer had been to Montgomery earlier that week, but Mose would not sell this picture till he shared it with my friend and I. That dealer wanted the picture real bad and made him a huge offer. Well 34 years later. I have decided to share his work with the world. It features the little man that is excited and Mose said he was like a butterfly getting some love nectar from the Moose Lady The drops are the “love ” nectar. What a conversation piece! This was Mose being himself, he loved life and was always fun to visit him at his bedside where he created and painted. His work sometimes walked on the wild side. But always was true to his life and fun loving self. You can read more about him in the books and articles that have been written about this great artist. 27″ X 25″ with the can tab hanger nailed on the back of the plywood. It will be packed well.
