A rare work of art by Annie Lee titled Weavin' Sunshine that depicts an African American woman weaving baskets from her porch in the deep south. Created in Annie Lee's unique style that is known as "Black Americana".
The basketweaving tradition can be traced back to West Africa. In the antebellum South enslaved Africans used the baskets as winnowing fans to separate the rice seed and chaff and to hold household goods. Basketweaving was a valuable skill in the old south.

Annie Lee
Ever since taking the art world by storm during her first gallery show in 1985 at the age of 50, where her artwork sold out in just four hours, Annie Lee has been a central and celebrated figure in the world of art. Her style was labeled by art commentators as "Black Americana" due to her use of scenes of everyday African American life, the animated emotion of the personalities and two-dimensional figures. Another recognizable and trademark aspect of her is art is the fact that her subjects were often faceless.Most in stock items ship in 0 to 5 business depending upon the shipping method selected during checkout.
