American Arts, Jackman
Independent
Born N.Y.
Fond of painting landscapes, freight yards, beautiful gardens and marines
Graduated from Princeton
Continued his art studies under Chase and Du Mond
His friendship for Ranger was helpful
Painted with a stroke sure and virile, like Homer
"Color rises to its full potency when an understanding of form is its support."
In Beal's latest pictures line seems to carry color with it
Beal is expected to do even bigger things
"An art which is so vital and alive as his will surely go farther."
