Jimmy Lee Sudduth I



Jimmy Lee Sudduth (1910 - 2007) was a self taught artist and blues musician. Jimmy often mixed his own pigments from mud and earth and painted on unprimed boards with his fingers as "they don't wear out". 
I have chosen his animal paintings, as I especially liked the tree like limbs and singing mouth of Jimmy's dog in the top image would be a great image to give children to inspire them to write a fairy tale or story.
