“Jamie Wyeth has since adolescence attracted considerable attention as a third-generation American artist: son of Andrew Wyeth. Among the country’s most popular painters, he is also the grandson of Newell Convers Wyeth. “Everybody in my family paints altogether – excluding possibly the dogs,” says Jamie Wyeth. Non-human subjects are a common theme. Additionally, a sensitive observer of his rural surroundings. He moreover paints livestock and other animals while maintaining the same care and intensity he devotes to portraits of people. During childhood, Wyeth significantly had before him the example of not only his father and grandfather but also his aunts and uncles, also all painters.
This Franklin Mint 1974 plate is perfect for any collector!
