Meet Mose TolliverMose Tolliver (19202006) was a self-taught folk artist from Alabama whose imaginative and vibrant paintings portraying birds, flowers, people, and whimsical figures captured hearts across the folk-art world. Despite leaving school in the third grade, Tollivers artistic vision flourished after a disabling work accident, leading him to paint on plywood with house paint. His signature style, often signed "Mose T" (notably with a backward "S"), became instantly recognizable and beloved. His works are featured in major museums, including the Smithsonians National Museum of American Art, and have been exhibited in landmark shows like Black Folk Art in America. 19301980 InvaluableArtsyJohn Moran.
