For your consideration are three, original portrait style paintings on board done by Montana artist Paul Krapf in the mid to late 20th century. Paul Krapf (1927-2019) was a wildlife and landscape artist from Gardiner, Montana at the southern end of the beautiful Paradise Valley north of majestic Yellowstone National Park. His house and studio were built along the Yellowstone River 11 miles north of the park. The inhabitants of Yellowstone National Park were his frequent subjects. He also produced coastal views, especially Oregon’s, as well as Western scenes and landscapes. The first and smallest in this lot shows an image of a red and blue skull set on the center of the board. It is set on a three dimensional hoof shape. The bottom right is signed and reads, "Krapf '69". The second in this lot is a portrait of an older woman wearing a yellow dress. She has a somber look on her face as she looks slightly away from the viewer. She sports short, gray hair and floral designs on her dress, contrasting nicely with the light blue / gray background. The piece is signed in the bottom right hand corner reading, "Krapf". The third and largest piece shows a younger woman with a small smile on her face as she looks towards the left of the viewer. She has long, black curly hair and sports a sea foam green shirt and light red / pink skirt which contrasts nicely against the gray / blue background. The piece is signed on the bottom right hand corner reading, "Krapf". The pieces show good conditiion overall with little to no wear present and no signs of damage noted. The smallest measures 18" L x 14" W, the middle measures 20" L x 16" W, while the largest measures 36" L x 24" W. They have a collective weight of 7 pounds.
