From the estate of Chicago artist James Frederic Bone (1929-2015) This oil on masonite was probably painted in the Ozarks around Fayetteville Arkansas while Bone was earning his MFA from the University of AR in the 1950s. There are two single pen cabins connected by a breezeway. There is an unfinished abstract painting on the reverse with cardboard residue on the edges. Unsigned. This is a very good piece of Mid-century Southern art. Bone was born in Brownsville, Texas and moved to the Hyde Park section of Chicago, IL in the 1970s.
