Pink and Yellow Bird with Flowers and Perched Owl, PA Naive Drawing c. 1900 woman with braids with a mother and child

with a mother and child with bottle in hand looking on

And then page after page of thread drawings

There were some much more polished drawings in the sketchbook

but it certainly seems to have a good amount of age

seems to have been finished with a light shellac or varish

Pink and Yellow Bird with Flowers and Perched Owl, PA Naive Drawing c. 1900 woman with braids with a mother and childI found this drawing in Pennsylvania tucked inside a school notebook, c. 1900 or so. Just a joyful thing, this pink bird with yellow wings, worm in its beak and flowers of all sorts springing forth around it. And a little owl perched on one stalk too. PA for sure, graphite and crayon on lined notebook paper. 6 7 8" x 8 3 8". Very good condition. Paper is a bit brittle.
