This is a unique folk art piece featuring a black snake, black alligator and blue/ black monster with Lord Love You written across the top in marker on a wood panel by artist R. The artwork is signed by R. Miller and is one of a kind, adding to its value as a collectible piece of contemporary folk art from Georgia, USA. The piece measures 12 inches in length and 16 inches in height, and it is unframed, showcasing the raw and authentic style of folk art. About the artist. Miller was born July 22, 1912, in Gainesville, Georgia. He passed away on March 7, 2006. Miller began making art at about the age of sixty-eight when the onset of glaucoma made it difficult for him to continue raising hogs. He began by creating whirligigs and soon the hillside next to his house was covered with colorful spinning “windmills” as he called them. He would cut tin in the shape of animals, devils, angels, and “Blow Oscar, ” (a rendition of a man who would blow his horn every time he passed by). He then would paint the tin and attach it to crudely assembled wooden pieces. Also made paintings on tin or wood, some with messages such as “Lord love you”. Miller was a preacher at the Free Will Baptist Church. He was also inspired by animal images he would see on television. His work was included in Outside the Mainstream, Folk Art in Our Time, 1988, High Museum of Art, Atlanta, Ga. And “Passionate Visions of the American South, ” at the New Orleans Museum of Art.

Most of the main wood on this cabinet is 3/4 thick. The back is made from boards and the nails have iron spots and streaking as you can see. There’s also a little repair down at the lower left side. We took a close-up of that. It’s an old white paint with undertones of off-whites. There’s a lot of alligatoring, dry, chippy and peeling paint here and there as you can see. It’s old and it’s cool! There are also some scratches, nicks, chips, surface rust, paint loss, alligator paint, crackle, hand rub wear, edge wear, paint marks and patina.
