Description
Country John Deere Art
Please note that all prints offered here are smaller-sizes than the original limited edition.
I created the image at the request of Ducks Unlimited (DU) as a follow-up print to the 1998 one, "Lab Assignment." It was distributed at DU banquets in a seven-state region during 2000. Lithograph size: 18 x 16 inches with white borders around the image making the total size larger.
A small number of lithographs remain with the artist and may be purchased. Limited Edition #1250 prints plus artist proofs, all signed and numbered by the artist. Almost all were sold in 2000. The lithograph printing plates were destroyed, so no additional copies would be made, to keep the edition limited.
Inspiration:
My mother collected wagon wheels, while my sister Lori loved the color blue and Victorian homes. As children, Lori and I built forts from hay bales in Grandma's barn and collected "jewels" of hardened sap from the old apple trees on the farm. Each tractor in the collage art is a John Deere 4020 Diesel.
A dear "Deere" friend is the puppy or kitten who is contented to be with you, who can romp and play, then sleep on your lap. In that dreamy time of day, a rest from play, the boy is safe with a friend who loves him no matter what. Now the autumn sun and sky reflect on his face. Come spring, a taller boy will romp with a long-legged dog. Special thanks to Garrett, the local boy who posed for the art.
