Harold Cromwell was unique among the major Nova Scotia folk artists in two ways-he was African Nova Scotian (indeed, the most widely known African Nova Scotian folk artist in Canada), and his work consisted primarily of monochrome drawings (Joe Sleep also drew, but most of his work was done with coloured pens and inks).
He would draw on any scrap of paper that came to hand-even paper plates (Royal Chinet, of course, made here in Nova Scotia). There is one paper plate drawing in this exhibition, and another in the collection of the Canadian Museum of History. Obviously, he would draw on almost anything when the spirit moved him.
This show catalog profiles 15 of Cromwell's works, and includes an introductory essay by Ray Cronin.
