He was the quintessential example of a true American artistic genius. He was Andrew Wyeth, my favorite American Artist.
Andrew’s disciplined artistic journey began as a young boy and his respect for the human spirit never wavered. Andrew Wyeth once said, “I search for the realness, the real feeling of a subject, all the texture around it, I always want to see the third dimension of something. I want to come alive with the object.” Wyeth's desire was to capture a moment, not a frozen moment, but a fleeting moment.
If you're going to paint from a photograph, it's important to know the difference between a frozen moment and a fleeting moment. It's the fleeting moment that's wrought with feeling!
