Featured in this lot is this framed oil on canvas painting from artist Margie Jackson (born 1934 and passed in 2021). The painting is called "Home Before the Snow Flies." The oil painting features a scene of four riders going to a home dwelling in the distance and pulling a pack animal behind; it shows snowstorm clouds in the distance. The artist’s signature can be seen on the right-hand corner of the painting. Margie Jackson (1934-2021) was a painter for years before she became a sculptor. 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 framed oil painting is good, with no obvious signs of damage. The measurements of this framed oil painting are 28 1/2" x 44 1/2" and the visible art measures 23 1/4" x 39 1/2".
