A Day at the Brandywine

A Day at the Brandywine

I never met Andrew Wyeth. I wish I had. I’ve admired his work for 30 years and he has greatly influenced my life and paintings. “I identify with his conviction that emotion is the bottom line of art” is a line in Richard Meryman’s biography and it resonates with me. I want my work to imbue the sense of emotion that moves me and to evoke that response in viewers of my paintings, just like he did.
