Description
Charley Harper (1922-2007) American, Lithograph. Pencil signed and titled, "Don't Bug Me". Charley Harper is known for Nature images-wildlife, insects, birds; commercial illustration, teaching. When asked why they draw the way they do, "my answer is, "Because I was bugged by happy housewives." I say this half in jest, but in retracing my path as an artist I find that this answer best describes an important turning point that directed me toward what I now feel is the work I do best - nature illustration. But I'm way ahead of my story. It began in a small town in central West Virginia, the town of Frenchton, where I was born in 1922 and, at a tender age, fell out of a second story window onto a tree stump. I emerged apparently whole from this experience, and it was not until several years later that my parents began to ask themselves if I had indeed escaped unscathed: I announced that I wanted to become an artist." Size: 17 3/4 x 22 1/4 in. Sight Size: 11 1/4 x 16 1/8 in.Location BC
