Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Art lovers will enjoy reading about and admiring the paintings of this talented regional southern artist.” —Lowcountry Companion A product of the industrialized New South, Eugene Healan Thomason (1895–1972) made the obligatory pilgrimage to New York to advance his art education and launch his career. Like so many other aspiring American artists, he understood that the city offered unparalleled personal and professional opportunities—prestigious schools, groundbreaking teachers, and an intoxicating cosmopolitan milieu—for a promising young painter in the early 1920s. The patronage of one of the nation’s most powerful tycoons afforded him entrance to the renowned Art Students League, where he fell under the influence of the leading members of the Ashcan School, including Robert Henri, John Sloan, and George Luks. In all, Thomason spent a decade in the city, adopting—and eventually adapting—the Ashcan movement’s gritty realistic aesthetic into a distinctive regionalist style that utilized thick paint and simple subject matter. Eugene Thomason returned to the South in the early 1930s, living first in Charlotte, North Carolina, before settling in a small Appalachian crossroads called Nebo. For the next thirty-plus years, he mined the rural landscape’s rolling terrain and area residents for inspiration, finding there an abundance of colorful imagery more evocative—and more personally resonant—than the urbanism of New York. Painting at the same time as such well known Regionalists as Thomas Hart Benton and Grant Wood, Eugene Thomason embraced and convincingly portrayed his own region, becoming the visual spokesman for that place and its people.

Download or read book Approaching Nebo S Peak written by Eulie R. Brannan and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2018-09-15 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we near the end of our earthly sojourns, often we look back on our journeys and reflect on the many peaks and valleys along the way. Moses led a stubborn people for forty years to bring them from Egypt to the Promised Land, but his mistake in not following God’s command prevented him from entering. Yet he was given permission to climb Mount Nebo and see the Promised Land before he died. In Approaching Nebo’s Peak, author Eulie R. Brannan reflects on his ninety year journey as he, too, nears his own Nebo’s peak, imagining Moses’s thoughts and intertwining them with his own. Dr. Brannan has spent a lifetime studying the scriptures, which has enabled him to draw on Bible characters and principles and share his insights with you; by noting how the lower peaks and valleys can help us make our last great climb to the top, he hopes that his spiritual autobiography will help you in your climb. Like Moses, you may have spent a lifetime seeking the Promised Land. And as you climb to Nebo’s peak and see what the Lord has given, you will finally experience the excitement of a permanent homecoming.
