Featured in this lot is this framed oil on canvas showing Canadian Geese in flight by Margie Jackson born 1934 and died 2021. The painting features three Canadian Geese taking off and in flight with a lake scene in the background and shows the sun just barely coming up in the morning. The artist signature can be seen in the bottom right hand corner. Her experience at casting her creations in bronze began around 1976. Jackson lived on a farm in Yelm, Washington, but grew up in Texas and Oklahoma. Because the range was open and cattle left on their own, they would be prey to packs of wolves and coyotes. Horses were still respected as a means of transportation and the area was plentiful with Native Americans still richly steeped in their own culture, lending to the inspiration of her work. Among her numerous awards are Best of Show-Sculpture at the Celebration of Western Art Show in Olympia, Washington and First and Second places at the 1986 and 1987 Arizona Annual Art Shows. She was commissioned to create bronze and limited-edition prints celebrating the Washington State Centennial; the city of Yelm purchased one of these pieces for installation in the City Hall. The condition of this painting is good with no obvious signs of damage to the artwork or the frame and in good overall condition. The measurements of this painting are 24 1/2" x 28 1/2" and the visible art measures 19 1/2" x 23 1/2". Provenance: This is from the personal Artist Margie Jackson.
