Rutherford "Tubby" Brown (1929-2003), a self taught Georgia artist, was a carpenter
before turning his energetic attention to making found objects into wonderful folk art
carvings and vividly painted cutout tableaux.  He loved to entertain people and to have fun with his art.


He would carve figures -- free-standing and framed -- about subjects
ranging from biblical stories like Jonah and the whale to pop music. 


Tubby Brown's work is included in North Carolina’s Small Museum of Folk Art as well as many private collections.


Don't miss this rare chance to own a wonderful set of artwork!
