First to recommend
I love "outsider art" this piece is by Sam Doyle...he was born on St. Helena Island, South Carolina... his parents were descendents of freed slaves and were farm workers. Sam attended Penn Schools,,, private school founded by Northern white Quaker missionaries to provide a place for children of liberated slave to learn... after retiring in the 1960's, Doyle painted full time.
He painted on large pieces of roofing tin or plywood usually using house paints.. his focus was primarily on the African American folk lore and traditions of St. Helena Island. He died in 1985 leaving behind a large legacy of work.
