Bill Traylor
Recommended by Russell Hill
Born into slavery in Alabama in 1853, it wasn't until he was in his 80s that Bill Traylor began drawing and painting. His works have one foot in the ancient story telling of petroglyphs with a door open to the mythical and one that is distinctly personal and expressive, in line with the greats of modernism. One of the best to ever do it.

Saw a beautiful show of his work at the Folk Art Museum in NY years ago. Loved it so much.
