Oil on canvas painting of a street scene, presumably in Israel, 16" by 11 1/4" framed, signed at lower left "Moshe M.". This does not appear to be by Moshe Mokady, the best known artist with whom that name corresponds closely. Nevertheless it is a competently handled work in excellent condition.

Interesting contemporary work by artist MYRA AH CHEE (1931-), featuring not only the dot style that is most commonly seen in Australian aboriginal art, but also silhouetted or painted grubs, echidna, goanna lizards, ants, ticks---the insects and small animals of the central desert region. The artist was born in 1931 to a large family in Oodnadotta, but only within the last twenty years has she become active in producing art. She works in painting, linocut, batik, silk screen and pottery...

Outsider arts Philadelphia Artist Julian Crump, biblical quote Mixmedia 22 x 29“...........Typically, those labeled as outsider artists have little or no contact with the mainstream art world or art institutions.

A most interesting Mid-Century, as late as 1980's perhaps, multiple: a so-called "cast stencil", "cast paper", or "relief" print, therefore three dimensional, featuring a grid pattern of elongated shapes, with air brush paint application on the striking blue and red sections, signed at lower right in pencil and numbered 34/250 in pencil at lower left by noted Arkansas-associated artist PAUL MAXWELL (1925-2015).

Fine pencil drawing, possibly illustrator art, of a traditional old doorway in New England or elsewhere in the east, 10 1/2" by 7 1/2" inside the mat, 17" by 13 1/2" framed. There are a few listed artists by this name Don Browne (possibly "Browne"----there might be a fainter version underneath) but I don't believe this to be by one of them, though the work is competently executed. The drawing is in clean, fine condition.

The unframed sheet measures 24 1/4" by 18", and bears the complementary signature of the artist in blue ink at lower right just below the black area of the central image.

Original pencil figural drawing, 15" by 9" plus a gray mat, unframed, signed at lower right "K. Delaney" and dated there 1979. I do not know who the artist might have been but he or she certainly had a talent as a draftsperson. The condition is generally good save for modest paper browning and there is tape residue on the reverse from clumsy attachment to the mat. Fit a frame on this and you'll have a pleasant, nicely executed drawing.
