Listed American Female Folk Art Layered Constructed Sculptural Oil Painting

James C. Litz is a self-taught artist who has a "primitive-naive" style of oil and acrylic paintings that features colorful and humorous characters and scenes. His paintings have a very child-like quality to them and you can see the artist's active imagination at work transforming everyday life into art. In 1994, the fine arts magazine Sunstorm, described him as having a "natural wit and style".
