Andrew Newell Wyeth - painter

[MarsGal]

Newell Convers Wyeth, artist and illustrator and Andrew's father.


Andrew is my sister's favorite artist. She has several prints of his paintings hung at her house. I, on the other hand, like N.C. Wyeth for his book illustrations. We have both been down to the Brandywine Museum to seek their works displayed. The last time, I was lucky enough to be there when they were featuring N.C.'s original cover art paintings. This one has a special place in my heart, from Treasure Island which was the first Robert Lewis Stevenson book I read as a child and the first time I encounterd N. C. Wyeth's work.  http://www.toughton.com/books/treasure/blindpew.htm [size]
