Terry
Redlin from Hadley House Art Print Gallery |
|||
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 eight
consecutive years, 1991-98, Redlin has been named America's most popular artist in annual
gallery surveys conducted by U.S. ART magazine. His induction into 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. Terry Redlin's interest in the
out-of-doors can be traced to his childhood in Watertown, South Dakota. A motorcycle
accident ended his dream of becoming a forest ranger, and he opted to pursue a career in
the graphic arts. He earned a degree from the St. Paul School of Associated Arts and spent
25 years working in commercial art as layout artist, graphic designer, illustrator and art
director. In his leisure time he researched wildlife subjects and settings.In 1977, at the age of 40, Terry
Redlin burst onto the wildlife scene when his painting "Winter Snows" appeared
on the cover of The Farmer magazine. By 1979, demand for his work had become so great that
he left his art directing career to concentrate on painting wildlife.Since then, Terry Redlin's
meteoric rise has been unparalleled in the field of contemporary wildlife art. In 1981 and
1984, he won the Minnesota Duck Stamp competition, and in 1982, the Minnesota Trout Stamp
contest. He also placed second that year in the Federal Duck Stamp Competition. He has
been honored as Artist of the Year for Ducks Unlimited (National and Minnesota), and as
Conservationist of the Year-Magnum Donor by the Minnesota Waterfowl Association for his
gifts of entire print editions. The National Association of Limited Edition Dealers has
three times presented him with the "Lithograph of the Year" award for excellence
in the medium.In 1985, Terry Redlin added an
entirely new artistic direction, limited edition collector plates. To date, he has
released more than 30 editions, many of which are now available only on the secondary
market. In addition to fine art and collector plates, Redlin's images also appear in a
variety of collectibles and decorative accessories. Cabins, homes and church sculptures
adopted from some of his most popular art prints join music and keepsake boxes, steins and
ornaments in collectors' displays.In 1987, Terry Redlin began
exploring his interest in Americana subjects and nostalgic scenes of yesteryear, painting
several images for his American MemoriesTM and Country DoctorTM
Collections. Since then his annual Christmas prints have attracted thousands of collectors
from coast to coast.In 1992, he completed his
ambitious work, the America the Beautiful series, depicting each line in the first stanza
of "America the Beautiful." All eight, which depict American life from the
settling of the west to the present day, were released as limited edition prints over a
three year period, ending in January, 1995. The series has been showcased in art and
consumer magazines nationwide. "Terry Redlin Paints America the Beautiful," a
video presentation produced by Hadley House, earned a coveted Telly Award in the 1993
national competition.Terry Redlin's immense popularity
can also be measured by the success of his books, "Opening Windows to the Wild, The
Art of Terry Redlin," released in 1987, and "Master of Memories," issued
ten years later. A critical as well as a commercial success, Redlin's first book was a
Certificate of Merit winner at the prestigious Printing Industries of America competition
in 1988. Sales of "Master of Memories" has already introduced thousands to
Redlin's world.Terry Redlin derives the most
satisfaction from his conservation work. Over the 17 year period from 1981-97, his
donations to Ducks Unlimited raised more than $28 million, setting an all_time record in
art sales for wetland preservation projects. By his own estimate, he has donated several
million dollars in art to other nonprofit conservation organizations.Terry Redlin's most compelling
project was the construction of a museum to house his original art in Watertown, South
Dakota where he now resides. The museum, which also includes a state tourism office,
DigistarTM theater and state of the art teleconferencing center, opened in
June, 1997. Over 400,000 visitors toured the Redlin Art Center in its first seven months.
The artist donated the $10 million museum to the state in appreciation for an art
scholarship he received after graduating from high school in Watertown. |
