She's Having Twins

John Henry Toney, Seale, Alabama

Here's a piece I really like by John Henry called 'She's Having Twins'

This piece was done when he was 68.  About 16 years ago.  What I like is the fine pencil work in her hair.  You don't see many pencil drawings from John.  Also, all the marker work is done with fine lines.  She has the number 23 on her neck.  Maybe her age.  Her little dog is pulling the leash and leaving his tiny paw prints.  John likes putting people and animals together in his drawings.  From gators to snakes, cows, horses and dinosaurs.  Sometimes creating John Henry allegories. This drawing is available at the gallery.  A unique piece by an artist who is quickly becoming one of the countries most sought after outsider artists.  He also has captured himself a significant following throughout Europe as well.  Truly a unique and imaginative American artist.  dave
