The Hand Painted Signs of Joe Light, Memphis TN Southern Folk Artist Original Photographs by Jim Linderman







Joe Light was an African-American man from Tennessee, but he called himself an American Jew.  He spoke his views to the neighborhood by messages posted on his house and shop.  Later, he was encouraged to paint.  Small works are seen mounted on his antique shop, and a number of paintings owned by the Souls Grown Deep collection can be seen here
