American school folk art is a genre of art that developed in the United States during the 18th and 19th centuries. It was created primarily by untrained, self-taught artists who worked outside of the traditional art world and often used unconventional materials and techniques.
American school folk art includes a wide variety of objects, such as paintings, sculptures, textiles, furniture, and pottery. It often reflects the daily life and experiences of ordinary people, and frequently incorporates images of animals, plants, and landscapes.
One of the most well-known forms of American school folk art is the quilt, which was created by women in rural communities throughout the country. Quilts often featured intricate designs and were made from scraps of fabric, reflecting the practical and resourceful nature of the people who made them.
Other examples of American school folk art include wood carvings, weathervanes, and fraktur (decorated manuscripts).
Today, American school folk art is highly valued for its historical significance and unique aesthetic qualities. Many museums and collectors have extensive collections of American school folk art, and the genre continues to inspire contemporary artists and craftspeople.

- Annie Gets Her Gun Original Deborah McKenna Oil Annie Oakley Western PortraitLocated in Whitefish, MT"Annie Gets Her Gun" by Deborah McKenna, original oil on canvas board, 30" x 20", 35" x 25" in a solid wood frame. Annie Oakley (born Phoebe Ann Mosey; August 13, 1860 – November 3, 1926) was an American sharpshooter who starred in Buffalo Bill's Wild West. Oakley developed hunting skills as a child to provide for her impoverished family in western Ohio. At age 15, she won a shooting contest against an experienced marksman, Frank E. Butler, whom she married in 1876. The pair joined Buffalo Bill in 1885, performing in Europe before royalty and other heads of state. Audiences were astounded to see her shooting out a cigar from her husband's hand or splitting a playing-card edge-on at 30 paces. She earned more than anyone except Buffalo Bill himself. After a bad rail accident in 1901, she had to settle for a less taxing routine, and she toured in a play written about her career. She also instructed women in marksmanship, believing strongly in female self-defense. Her stage acts were filmed for one of Thomas Edison's earliest Kinetoscopes in 1894. Since her death, her story has been adapted for stage musicals and films, including Annie Get Your Gun.

- Whimsical Judaica Shtetl Shadchan Matchmaker Oil Painting WPA Jewish Folk ArtistBy Maurice KishLocated in Surfside, FLGenre: Modern Subject: Fiddler on the roof, Shtetl matchmaker Medium: Oil Surface: Board, size includes artist decorated frame Country: United States The imagery of Maurice Kish (1895-1987), whether factories or carousels, reliably subverts expectations. His vision hovers just around the unraveling edge of things, where what is solid and clear becomes ambiguous. He is fascinated, often delighted, by the falling apart. This unexpected, fresh perspective results in oddly affecting pictures of a now long-gone New York. Born Moishe in a town called Dvinsk, Russia (what is now Daugavpils, Latvia), Kish came with his family to New York when he was in his teens. The family settled in Brownsville, and for the rest of Kish’s life Brooklyn remained his home, though he moved from one neighborhood to another. He was close to his parents, who recognized his talent and supported his desire to become an artist. Kish attended the National Academy of Design as well as Cooper Union. His fellow students included many other immigrants and children of immigrants who were particularly receptive to the Modernism coming from Europe. As his career progressed, Kish himself applied different strains of Modernism to different purposes. For him, the story was held above all else. For years, Kish used the skills he acquired in art school to earn his living at a Manhattan glass...Category
