MEET THE ARTIST

Terry Redlin

Few artists can rival the standards of excellence achieved by Master Artist Terry Redlin over the past 20 years. He is truly one of the country’s most widely collected painters of wildlife and Americana. For nine consecutive years, 1991-99, Redlin has been named America’s most popular artist in annual gallery surveys conducted by U.S.ART magazine. His induction in to U.S.ART’s Hall of Fame in 1992 followed the magazine’s poll of 900 galleries nationwide which that year, placed five of Redlin’s limited editions in the top 11 in popularity. Over the life of the poll, 30 prints have been included in that list. His use of earthy colors, blazing sunrises and sunsets and nostalgic themes are often cited as the reasons for his immense popularity.

TIMELESS HOME DECOR

Throughout the night leaves have been falling and rest gently on the milkhouse roof and tractor hood. The two children have begun their morning chores. Suddenly the still air is broken as five mallards wing low through the trees. In startled surprise the children and pets look up to catch a fleeting glance. In a morning blink all is again silent and the business of the day will continue. Only the windmill's rotating squeak is heard as water cools the fresh milk stored in the pump house. On the porch cats wait patiently to enjoy any spillage. The artist remembers this idyllic scene from visits to his uncle's farm. I was just a small boy then, he comments. It was a wondrous time of day and, I think, God is very close on a morning like this.
