Trio of Contemporary American Folk Art Wood Sculptures
A collection of three distinct handcrafted folk art pieces made from polychrome wood. The primary figure is a highly elongated, stylized human form standing approximately 36 to 42 inches tall. This figure features articulated or separate dowel-like legs, a flat torso painted in weathered yellow with black splatter distressing, and a heart-shaped element held at the waist. The second piece is a flat-profile blue bird with a yellow beak and pink underbelly, displaying a whimsical, oversized eye. The third piece is a decorative 'Home is where the heart is' sign, featuring a yellow house with a red heart on the roof and a green tree icon. All items show intentional distressing, including surface abrasions, faux-patina splatters, and soft edge wear to simulate age. The construction utilizes flat board cutouts and turned wood elements, likely dating from the late 20th to early 21st century. The style is characteristic of modern 'Primitive' or 'Country' decor, emphasizing rustic textures and symbolic motifs. Condition appears good with minor surface scuffs consistent with decorative display. No visible maker's marks are present on the front of the items.
