Folk Art Pt 2




I love roosterboy. I am a sucker for roosters. In the second image I put my favorite parts of two different paintings together. The flattened cow is beautiful and begs for more study. The last image has the folk art composition with that incorrigible perspective.
It says so much more in it's flaws than it could ever say if it were precise.

Folk Art Pt 1



Here are a couple of 'Inspirational' drawings done in 1854 by Hannah Colhoon, who was a Shaker. I have long been interested in
fruit-bearing(and otherwise) branches and vines in particular, and love the writing combined with the drawing. I have been painting and drawing and embroidering and sewing and writing, and would love to combine because it is pulling me in too many directions.
