As a collector of primitive art, I have learned that I will never be able to afford a Grandma Moses or a Maud Lewis painting but that has not deterred me from collecting paintings by other artists who depict their kinds of themes. This painting is as charming as it gets. This is a large acrylic painting of a Garden Center in Washington in all its Christmas decoration regalia. The painting is on canvas on stretcherboards and measures 23″ by 29″. PLEASE check the photos for some of the details this artist captured. There is a pond and fountain scene, a decorated Christmas tree and stockings, the florist shop, Santa’s residence, a flowered gazebo, children playing and families shopping. You can stare at this painting all day and not catch all the finely executed details. Whimsical and colorful, this piece has it all. Artist’s name is N. Harvey (I think) who has signed the artwork at the bottom right. Probably dates to the early 70’s. A masterpiece of folk art to be sure.
