Lowell Davis Art, Carthage, Missoura

            Though Lowell Davis was from Small Town America, he had a very large impact on many people across the US and abroad. Lowell was blessed with a wonderful talent that few people can say they ever had. There is probably no one universal definition of visual art; though there is a general consensus that art is the conscious creation of something beautiful or meaningful using skill and imagination. 
He loved his small town roots and stayed true to those roots all his life. One might say he always enjoyed the simpler things in life. 
Lowell once said about his beloved town of Red Oak II: “I don’t believe that an artist should be restricted to use only paint or clay. It can be anything including junk, wood, even an old building. To me, Red Oak II is a combination of a painting and a sculpture, and it is just made from things that someone else threw away.” 
We all have his paintings, drawings, figurines, sculptures and illustrations to be thankful for and to always remember him by. 

Lowell was truly the “Father of Country Art.”  This is just 1 of many
roadside "art pieces" near Carthage.
