"Summertime"
Jack Anderson

Jack Anderson has been using watercolor as his art
medium of choice since the mid 1960's. Although
he diverts to other mediums such as pastels or egg
tempera for a change of pace he finds watercolor
the most spontaneous, versatile and exciting
challenge and the most personally rewarding of the
art mediums. He has both B.S. and M.S. degree in
art education from Northern Illinois University and
has completed additional advance work through
several universities in the Midwest. Jack taught for
18 years in Crystal Lake, Illinois area and became a
full time painter in 1977. Jack's watercolors reveal
his love for Door County. He finds the area most
inspiring with an inexhaustible supply of subject
matter. However, he often paints a favorite spot
again and again with changing atmospheric
conditions and at different seasons. He enjoys
painting old weathered wood, sagging roof lines,
early log barns, meandering fence lines and creeks.
Jack and his wife Sue have the Jack Anderson
Gallery in Sister Bay, celebrating 35 years this year.
They reside in Gills Rock.
