Description |
This is a lithograph titled "Storm Light". It shows a small, very rural farmhouse, with two rocking chairs on porch. To the right there is a fence and to the left appears to be some wood pallets or additional fence. This lithograph reflects the lighting striking on the the whole scene. Coreen Mary Spellman (1905-1978) was born in Forney, Texas and attended the College of Industrial Arts. Spellman was a teacher, painter, designer, illustrator, lithographer and muralist. In her biography she states the following "I enjoy taking some rather obscure or unimportant subject or theme and making something fine and important out of it . . . It always gives me great pleasure to discover something which has been passed over as being inadequate material". |
