Framed Signed Print Chet Reneson Duck Hunting Scene Pencil Art In Border 75/400 Lot 329

Born in Cromwell, Connecticut in 1934, Chet Reneson grew up on the family game farm and learned the value of hard work. When he wasn't helping out with the chores he was drawing pictures of what he saw around him on the farm. This early talent got Chet to the University of Hartford art school and launched an illustration career at Pratt and Whitney and the Audubon Society and The Book of Knowledge. By the 1960s he was exhibiting his work in galleries in New York. Since then Chet's paintings have graced the covers of Gray's Sporting Journal and Sports Afield and he has been honored as Artist of the Year by major conservation groups, once by Trout Unlimited and twice by Ducks Unlimited. Chet lives and paints in Lyme with his fellow artist and wife Penny and their three English setters. This exhibition represents some of Chet's favorite subjects: fishing, shooting and the Bahamas. The perceived effortlessness of Chet's brushstrokes comes from years of dedicated work. All items in this pet free, smoke free home are being sold "as is - as found".
