Willie Tarver decorates his yard with what he calls "foolin's around with cement". His "foolin's around" ... statues of blacks, cowboys, mermaids and even nursing women, further enlivened with house paint ... were soon discovered by museum curators in Savannah and Atlanta, GA. When Willie learned that others considered him to be an artist, he added small iron welded sculpture to his repertoire because it was lighter in weight and could be transported to art fairs and the like. Willie's wife, Mae helps him make the iron sculptures. Tarvers large concrete sculptures are what serious collectors are looking for ... they are unique and imaginative vision of the people around him .... but these pieces are hard to ship ... so his smaller pieces are usually what is bought. He has been included in art shows throughout the South and his work is in the permanent collection of Museums in Savannah and Atlanta and has been shown at the American Visionary Art Museum.
