John Sperry is a Southern-based artist who paints in the outsider style, or non-traditional painting techniques. His folk art, like this painting, is usually done in acrylic on old roofing tin, and colorfully embraces a simple way of life that he himself lives in Georgia. This little white church is set off among the jewel-toned colors of a red door, the green lawn and the yellow sky - interestingly, it's the inside of the church that's blue, not the sky. Perhaps artist Sperry was first inspired by a real-life version of the church's sign: Sign broken come inside for the message. A fun find, this painting measures 36 by 28 inches.
