I have always been drawn to folk art. The graphic shapes and colors and the simplicity. Though complex. The the added bonus of the hand made frames! I am always watching tramp art frames coming up at auction but then never having the nerve to buy one or what would you put in it. When having a watercolor to frame designing a frame around it hand painted or a beautiful burl. But the other way around? These are all coming up for auction. No, I am not bidding. I don’t know this market or who buys them. Also as some of these are know artists and others unknown how would you price them or for that matter where would I hang them. I do see them in a cute breakfast room or a country kitchen. Maybe an early colonial. These are coming up at Briggs Auction, Inc.
