Drawings From The Folk Art Museum NYC
There is an interesting exhibit at the Folk Art Museum, Lincoln Square, in New York City. The art is by self-taught artists and all of the items are from the collection of Audrey B. Heckler. I sketched some of the simple images I liked from the paintings of Carlo Zinelli, Hans Kruski, and my all-time favorite - Bill Traylor (1853 - 1949). Traylor was a slave, sharecropper, and late in life an untrained artist who painted the world around him in Montgomery Alabama. The black drawing below is one of his.
