Painting, Roberta McDowell, Girl with Blue Bird and Flower, Original Plaque, Hand Painted, Signed, Vintage California 1970s

A girl, a bluebird, a flower — California folk art at its most whimsical and most genuine.

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 small and intimate — the painting itself approximately 3" × 2" — set in a gorgeous gold and green 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 Blue Bird plaque; contact us for a 15% discount on both.

For a girl's room, a farmhouse interior, or a collection of California folk art. A sweet and genuine small original.
