Pen and Ink Drawing of a Single Koosa Clown [SOLD]

Black and white pen and ink drawings by San Ildefonso Pueblo artist J. D. Roybal are not the norm for this artist.  Generally, his drawings and paintings are very colorful.  Typically, though, his subject matter concentrated on Koosa Clowns and Harvest Dance scenes.  This unusual pen and ink drawing does, however, portray a Koosa Clown in the artist’s traditional manner

The line drawings are very precise as are all Roybal’s paintings.  He lightly drew the image in pencil and then executed it in ink.  The result is an exceptional drawing.

Condition: appears to be in original condition

Provenance: from a gentleman from Tesuque, New Mexico, passed down from his father who was an acquaintance of the artist
