Folk Art Painting by Black Joe Jackson, Titled "We Be Pickn Sum Flars" US 1960's
About the Item
A large-scale painting by folk/outsider artist Black Joe Jackson (American, 1922-1997) .
Jackson's theme derives from his childhood memories in the American South. Raised in a poor sharecropper family, this scene of a family of four picking flowers in the field while accompanied by their playful dog captures a joyous moment in their lives, a welcome break from working in the fields. While the figures are rendered with abstract forms, saturated colors, and bold patterns, the setting is rendered in a more fluid manner.
Jackson delineated the twilight colored skies with loose, impressionistic brushwork and the vibrant field of wildflowers in a pointillist manner.
The piece is titled "We Be Pickn Sum Flars" and is hand signed and dated by the artist.
Measurements: 62 inches wide x 48 inches high x 1 inch deep/projection from the wall.
Black Joe Jackson was a self-taught African-American artist born to a sharecropper family near Atlanta, Georgia in 1920. Jackson created paintings on wooden boards and used easily available materials such as house paint an scrap wood. He was born with dyslexia, and the writings on his paintings demonstrate this. He is oftentimes described as a folk artist or an outsider artist.
