This is an ORIGINAL oil painting, NOT a print , and in my opinion, the loveliest painting by RUTH RUSSELL WILLIAMS that I have ever seen. The colors are fresh and bright and the figures are delicately detailed. Her bio can be found below. This is quite a find for any collector. Professionally matted and framed. MEASUREMENTS: Image is 8.5 x ll inches Outside of frame is 15 x 18 inches RUTH RUSSELL WILLIAMS BIO Ruth Russell Williams was born in 1932 in Townsville, North Carolina. Later, her paintings would portray scenes from this early work and from many other childhood experiences, including memories of going to work with her grandmother to the home of a plantation owner. She developed her talent along a path that took her from these humble beginnings to beauty salon owner and cosmetologist to national recognition as a self-taught artist. Initially drawn to ceramics, she taught ceramics at Vance-Granville Community College. When her children were mostly grown, she began painting, in her words, “to tell my life story”, but initially thought her paintings lacked merit. At an art exhibit at Kerr Lake in 1985, Williams was quite satisfied showing her work to the public, but when she learned that North Carolina A & T art professor James McCoy was nearby, she grabbed her paintings and hid behind bushes, fearful of presenting her work before a professional. McCoy, however, immediately recognized Williams unique aesthetic sensibility. He told Williams that she was a gifted folk artist and predicted that she would one day become widely recognized. For the next two decades, Williams produced hundreds of paintings, each one telling a story of life as she saw it, in a simple, straightforward and vividly colorful way. Her work is now prized by collectors and museums throughout the United States and Europe. One of her best-known works, Baptism, appeared on the cover of Smithsonian magazine in 1993. The NCCU Art Museum in Durham showcased over fifty of her original works of art at the exhibit, Ruth Russell Williams: Master Storyteller, in 2009.
