Description
A whimsical and amusing example of American Folk & Outsider Art depicting a lively kangaroo by Brian Dowdall. Mixed media on paper. Signed top right. From a private collection who purchased direct from artist. Dimensions: 17.5"h x 15"w (framed). In very good condition. Brian Dowdall (in his own words) I was born on February 12, 1948, in the small copper mining town Anaconda, Montana. While growing up, I spent most of my spare time hiking in the mountains situated a few blocks from home. It was there that I developed a strong kindred spirit with animals. After high school, I traveled extensively throughout the 1960's, hitchhiking across America and camping in national forests, caves, and wilderness areas. I also spent time in the little village of Puerto Marquez, Mexico, with an Indian friend, living in a converted horse stable. There, I painted hundreds of my animal spirit paintings using local house paint on Mexican newspapers. I paint energy patterns of animals with pure raw colors, surrounding and filling their forms. I've been painting animal spirit and goddess images for over thirty years. I do my colors from the sun, moon, fire, earth, trees, and water. They are painted on cardboard with tempera and house paint. My backyard sand creatures are done with brown paper bags, sand, and various glues. Living by the ocean, I find inspiration.Brian Dowdall passed in 2018. His art can be found in many collections and institutions nationally and internationally.
