The family moved to Duluth and he graduated from Denfeld High School in 1931. Quick spent the early 1930s in the East, attending the Vesper George School of Art in Boston (1931-1934) and studying at several Massachusetts and New York art colonies, particularly the Barn Studio in Andover, Massachusetts, and in Woodstock, New York. In 1936 and 1937 he was awarded the prestigious Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation fellowship and spent the summers studying at the Tiffany estate on Long Island. In 1937 he returned to Duluth, shared a studio with fellow artist Kunte Heldner, opened a gallery, and was employed as sculpture and art instructor at the College of St. Scholastica (1938-1940). Quick joined the Army Air Corps in 1943, spending part of his tour painting murals at the Keesler Base, Biloxi, MS. In 1946 he joined the faculty of the Minneapolis School of Art, now the Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD). He received his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the college in 1951, was promoted to associate professor in 1964 and to professor in 1973, and also taught in the school's evening program. In 1973 he received an honorary Master of Fine Arts degree from MCAD and at his December, 1977, retirement was named the school's first professor emeritus. In 1947 Quick and Byron Bradley of the Kilbride-Bradley Gallery, Minneapolis, began the Grand Marais Outdoor School of Painting as part of the Minneapolis School of Art's summer program. During 1949-1951 the classes were held in Red Wing and Minneapolis, but the program was moved back to Grand Marais in 1952 and was rechristened the Town Hall Art Colony. In 1956 the art school terminated its sponsorship of the colony, and Quick and Bradley became its sole owners. They renamed it the Grand Marais Art Colony. During his career Quick’s work was shown in numerous one-man and group exhibitions in such galleries as Duluth's Art Institute and the Tweed Museum of Art; Minneapolis's Harriet Hanley Gallery, Walker Art Center, Kilbride-Bradley Gallery, Minneapolis Institute of Arts, Martin Gallery, and MCAD; and the Art Institute of Chicago. Quick had works in American Federation of Art and United States Information Service traveling exhibits, and produced watercolor illustrations for Ford Times magazine (1950s-1970). His highly acclaimed murals can be seen in buildings in Coleraine, Grand Marais, Duluth, and St. Paul, all in Minnesota. In 1975 he was named an Outstanding Educator of America.

The human figure and still life are also subject matter I enjoy painting. Most of my work is done on location. I would consider myself a plein air painter. Art has always been an important part of my life. I have been drawing for as long as I can remember. Over the years I have worked in the areas of sculpture, ceramics and jewelry. Now, painting has become my main endeavor. Before I retired, I taught Art in the Duluth Minnesota School System. I live and work in Duluth, Minnesota during the summer and in Bisbee, Arizona during the winter. The contrast of Northern Minnesota and Southern Arizona offers great challenges for painting the landscape. “ - -Robert Luedtke Alexander Francis Lydon (1836-1917) Swithland Hall, Earl of Leicestershire engraving on paper, 5 x 7” $30.00 Estate of Value www.estateofvalue.com | (218) 390-8094 2 Dale Lucas & Julene Boe Moving Sale Art Catalog | 1503 North Central Ave, Duluth, MN | July 29-30, 2017 Drawn by T.

She married Arthur Scanes in 1882 but continued to use her maiden name. She exhibited 54 works during the years 1874-1901 at the Royal Academy. She also showed works at the Chicago World Exposition in 1893. Her painting Hush was included in the 1905 book Women Painters of the World.[4] She was mentioned by Dorothy L. Sayers in The Wimsey Papers VI as an overly cloying painter of idealised children in Arcadian settings; In the case of this print titled “Songs of Love,” the subject appears to be more cynical than cloying, if you look at the attitudes of the audience.

In the 1860s Godey intended to take advantage of the popularity of gift books, many of which were marketed specifically to women.

Sarah Josepha Hale (author of "Mary Had a Little Lamb") was its editor from 1837 until 1877 and only published original, American manuscripts. Although the magazine was read and contained work by both men and women, Hale published three special issues that only included work done by women.

    Press Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE New Exhibition! Canvas and Cast: Highlights from the Bruce Museum’s Art Collection February 11 – June 11, 2017 Bruce Museum, 1 Museum Drive, Greenwich, CT 06830 203-869-0376 brucemuseum.org William Merritt Chase (American, 1849-1917) Young Girl, c. 1900 Oil on canvas, 30 x 25 in. Bruce Museum Collection 2002.31 GREENWICH, CT (January 16, 2017) – On February 11, 2017, the Bruce Museum in Greenwich, Connecticut, opens its newest exhibition, Canvas and Cast: Highlights from the Bruce Museum’s Art Collection. Featuring 35 paintings and 7 sculptures from the Bruce’s growing collection, the show celebrates long-time favorites and many recent acquisitions representing significant moments in the history of art from the 16th through the 20th centuries. This exhibition, organized by Peter C. Sutton, The Susan E. Lynch Executive Director, and curated by Courtney Skipton Long, Zvi Grunberg Postdoctoral Fellow 2016/17 at the Bruce Museum, examines art historical themes including sculpted and painted portraits, narrative scenes and statues, landscapes, still lifes, and genre scenes. Press Release For over a century, the collection at the Bruce Museum has grown steadily and been developed carefully through donations and purchases. After Robert Moffat Bruce bequeathed his home as well as a few portraits to the Town of Greenwich in 1908, the Bruce Museum hosted its first exhibition of art four years later. At the time, the Greenwich Press noted that it was a welcome change to see “a long gallery hung with paintings from the best works of local artists.” Beginning in the early 20th century, the Museum acquired paintings that were created by artists who were influential in establishing the American Impressionist movement, such as Theodore Robinson, John Henry Twachtman, Leonard Ochtman, and Frederick Childe Hassam.
