Kentucky Calvin Cooper Signed 1991 Folk Art large vintage wood carving sculpture. Of Wallingford, Kentucky, immersed himself in woodworking and creating decorative objects after his retirement from the Kentucky Department of Transportation. He finds his medium, wood, in the Kentucky forests and uses the wood’s natural shape to crate sculpture with a distinctly personal style. The pieces reveal his tongue-in-cheek humor through the portrayal of unexpected or awkward moments. Cooper’s subject matter is varied and includes natural themes, and imaginative creatures. His work is in the Museum at Morehead State University in Kentucky and in many galleries. With his passing in 2011 at age 90 he will be missed but his art will live on. This piece is in excellent condition. Please Zoom the photos to appreciate all the details, as well as to best understand overall condition. Thank you so much.
