Folk Art Painting, Black Joe Jackson, (GA. 1920-1997) A Trio

Paint on board, unframed, the profile images of three women, each painted with movement and colorful design, the subtle background treatment creates focus on the primary subject, Loz Bag and Kitn (both 17.25 X 12 in.); Danzn Girl (18.25 x 11.5 in.)

Joe Jackson was an African-American born to a sharecropper family, He was dyslexic as is evidenced by his writing, and generally painted images from his childhood experiences. His creation of atmospheric backgrounds is somewhat unique.
