Research swows an article in 4/18/1960 Sports Illustrated mentions Dr Alvin Nitchman, Cranberry, NJ showed up the proffessionals at Fort Indiantown Gap, PA,pointer & setter Club trials when his pet Magnum won the $1500 all age stakes.
Surely this painting was commissioned to capture another of his loved pets and winning dogs.
Much information about J Randy Rowe can be found on SCOUTERS PAGE, from which the following was copied;
Randy Rowe couldn't walk across your living room without help, but everyone he touched is far better off because Randy quietly brushed by. And, although he's gone now, his memory and his art remain to inspire us."
In 1968 when originally commissioned to do a cigarstore Indian, he rejected the stiff image of the adorned and phony native and carved "Blue Nose," replica of a Delaware Indian. [Blue Nose,] is now part of the permanent collection of the Reading Public Museum & Art Gallery, Reading, PA.
His works have been exhibited in the William Penn Memorial Museum in Harrisburg, the Atlantic Flyway Waterfowl Carving & Arts Exhibition in Salisbury, Maryland and the Third Biennial American Bird Carving Exhibition in Chestertown, MD.
During May of 1970 his works were displayed in a one man show at the Berks County Historical Society, and at the William Penn Memorial Museum in Harrisburg in 1971.
His carved Bald Eagle is the official emblem of the National Rifle Association, Washington, D.C
I personally met Randy in the mid 70's and he left a profound impression on me and my wife. His love of nature, wildlife and art deeply influenced our lives. |
