Painting, Roberta McDowell, Blue Bird on Branch, Original Plaque, Hand Painted, Signed, Vintage California 1970s

A bluebird on a branch — small enough to hold in your palm, bright enough to light up a room.

An original hand-painted plaque by Roberta McDowell of California, signed on the front and bearing the original foil sticker on the back: "Original Plaques Designed & Hand Painted by Roberta McDowell, Calif." The work is petite — the painting itself approximately 2" × 2" — set in a gold and beige authentic wood frame with no glass. Textured surface, as is characteristic of all McDowell's originals. Ready to hang with sawtooth hanger. Born in Wyoming, McDowell grew up in Southern California and developed a distinctive folk-art style — bright colors, whimsical subjects, lighthearted spirit — that has earned her work a devoted following. Also available: a companion Girl with Blue Bird and Flower plaque; contact us for a 15% discount on both.

On a gallery wall, a window ledge, a child's room, or anywhere a small bright thing belongs. A perfect gift for a bird lover, a folk art collector, or anyone who appreciates something genuinely hand made.
