A charming and evocative piece of American outsider and folk art – an oil on canvas painting depicting a rural farmhouse scene set in what appears to be the Caribbean or the American South. Workers are shown slaughtering an animal beside a white clapboard farmhouse with a vivid teal tin roof, surrounded by palm trees, a wooden fence, and the raw textures of agricultural life. Painted in a naive style that is the hallmark of self-taught outsider artists, the work has an immediacy and authenticity that academic painting rarely achieves. The composition is lively and detailed – figures engaged in labor, the drama of the slaughter rendered in bold reds against earthy tones, the tropical setting conveying both the beauty and the gritty reality of island farm life. The piece is housed in a warm-toned wood frame that suits the rustic subject matter well. Measures approximately 13″ x 8″ inside frame. Medium: Oil on canvas. Style: Outsider / Folk Art / Naive Art. Subject: Caribbean or Southern U. Farm scene with figures, farmhouse, palm trees. Frame: Original wood frame included. Signature: Unsigned (as is common with outsider and self-taught folk artists). Condition: Good with provisos – colors bright, consistent with age, minor wear to frame, canvas is wavy inside frame. The painting itself is intact with good color retention. The wood frame shows age-appropriate wear. Please review all photos carefully before purchasing. Will be carefully bubble-wrapped and boxed for safe transit. Unsigned outsider and folk art paintings from African American artists of the American South and Caribbean have become increasingly sought after by serious collectors. Works in this naive tradition – depicting everyday rural and agricultural life – represent an important and often underdocumented chapter in American art history.

Painted Dog House (Wood, Paint, Shingles). H x 37″ L x 24″ W Weight: 50-60 lbs. No apparent damage or restoration. Earl King Swanigan was born on January 14, 1964, in Columbus, Mississippi, to Collier and Lorine Swanigan. Earl was a constant presence on the streets of Hudson, NY. Often seen carrying a found piece of plywood or piece of furniture that he would peddle to store fronts and to pedestrians who might pass by one of the outdoor places he would set up shop on the sidewalks of the city. Earl became a regular visitor to places like TSL, where Claudia Bruce would print images for him to use in his work – Obama, Marilyn Monroe, Mohammed Ali, and many others. Claudia and Earl discovered that they were both born in northeast Mississippi and both migrated north to pursue a life of art. Not without his share of controversy, Earl was a passionate artist with an expansive output of work. His spirit lingers in Hudson’s rowdy, often chaotic, and, sometimes, general dysfunction. Self taught, Earl had a great fondness for animals. Most of his pieces are painted on found wood and with household paints. His work is featured in magazines, blogs, videos and newspapers including the New York Times. Even though his works are in a medium and style not associated with the modern world, his “in your face nature” and down to earth charm have made him an artistic force in the world of contemporary outsider art. Earl died on January 5, 2019, at Berkley Medical Center, in West Virginia.

Mose Tolliver Mose T signed Watermelon Painting on Wood Outsider Folk Art 10×9. This painting is 10 inches long and 9 inches high and on what looks like 3/4 plywood. Mose Tolliver grew up in the Pike Road Community in Alabama, born to a family of sharecroppers. In the late 1960’s, a load of marble crushed his legs and almost killed him. The accident left him unable to work. In 1970, at the encouragement of his former employer, he began to paint. Developing a signature wet-on-wet technique, Tolliver began painting animals, people, plants, fruits and vegetables, all in flat perspective, stylistically refined as elementary shapes and symbols.
