The original 16×20″ African American abstract Folk Art Painting “Four Sisters Reminiscing Through Old Photos by Melody Cole Gates is a unique and captivating piece. This medium-sized canvas painting features an abstract style with a heartfelt theme, showcasing four sisters sitting on the floor reminiscing through old photos. Created in 2020 using acrylic painting technique, this one of a kind (OOAK) artwork is signed by the artist and ready to hang. It is a standout piece for art collectors and enthusiasts.

Fairly Priced to Sell. 25″ x 31″ x 3. Description: This naïf work by Simon Zoto depicts a New England village with a large red schoolhouse as the focal point of the painting. It is painted in the primitive style of an untrained artist with the buildings and trees reduced to an almost pictographic representation. Surrounding the schoolhouse are a number of traditional clapboard houses as well as a large barn-like structure with trees in the background. He always worked in the primitive or naïf style, always painting scenes of New England in a simpler time.
