Original Drawing (9" x 12") with color pencils SIGNED, dated, and titled by the artist. On the verso is the artist's handwritten description in pencil of the drawing as well as a brief biography: "Jack Savitsky worked 40 years, IN THE coal mines never took a ART lesson." In 1959 Savitsky contracted Black Lung disease and began drawing, something he enjoyed doing as a youth. One of the great self-taught artists in the modern era, Savitsky often painted characters and scenes from his life in the coal mines. Coal Miner Jack is one of his favorite subjects. Savitsky's work has been sold at major auction houses and is in great demand.
