andrew wyeth 1917-2009




talk about an artist whose initial vision remained consistent & primary throughout his life despite never being in synch w/current preoccupations. add to that mix the much revered father-figure & it's a wonder he got anything done. i can't say this is my favorite art but it's solid & seems to be very comfortable w/its place in history. that, it seems to me, takes it very close to masterful.
