A rare oil on a 9″ X 12″ canvas artist board painting done in 1982 by the well known American Folk Artist Jack Savitsky. Advised by his doctor Jack Savitsky had to give up painting in oil paint in the early 1980s due to him having black lung disease and he only used crayons, pencils and markers after that on his artwork. Painting in good vintage condition with overall yellowing from the varnish applied by the artist back in 1982 and common on most early oil paintings by Jack Savitsky. Varnish could be removed and painting would be much brighter. Also a small area of paint loss on the brim of the man’s cap as seen in picture # 8. The painting itself in frame measures 8 1/2″ X 11 1/2″ sight and with vintage wooden frame 12″ X16″.

Here we have a great original folk art Americana painting on wood board by very well known and listed folk artist Dorthy Davis. Born in 1910 passed in 1991. Davis, how she signed. Picture shows a young girl lady sitting in front of a window with the curtain opened just enough to see a farm house and trees in the distance. The 2 places that look out of place on painting is just knot’s in the wood. As it is painted on wood. Size is in photos. Back of painting paper is ripped and soiled. So paper needs replaced. Has typical scratches, dings and nick’s. Where Painting is vintage could use a cleaning to brighten it up more. Please look at photos for condition and size.
