James Fethrolf, given the appellation "A Contemporary Legend" in landscape painting, captures on canvas the raw beauty of America. His works seem to tap us on the shoulder, saying, "Step into nature, join me in a vision of beauty." From his Country meadows, to silhouetted mountain cathedrals; to great rock monoliths guarding foreboding deserts, James Fetherolf paints the many faces of our land. Oak shaded country barns, surrounded by rolling hills of wheat and rye, also typify the American theme that he paints so well. From the tiniest buckwheat and seedling, to the loftiest snow-capped peak, each is giving the same thoughtful attention. And each appears just as impressive within the composition.
