Outsider Art
First to recommend
Description
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.

Art artist
First to recommend
Description
This outside artis Bill Traylor ( 1854 - 1949 ) was born into slavery near Montgomery, Alabama..he remained a field hand after gaining his freedom.
He did not begin to draw until he was 83 years old. He is an important artist of the 20century... his mastery of form and his flat imagery and use of space bring to mind African and ancient imagery. He was prolific and produced 1500 pieces of art from the age of 83 and older,,,amazing work.. spiritual in their sparcity.
