A Note About Jon Nelson ( January 1952 - May 2004 )

Jon Nelson was born in Queens, New York. He lived in the New York City area until 1989, when he moved to the South Carolina Lowcountry.

Here he has resumed painting after a 20-year hiatus. He paints the landscape of the coastal plains, with their wide prairies of marsh and soaring, vaulted sky.

The moon frequently appears in his work, luminous and changing appearance in its journey around the earth. Its influence on the tides is inexorable in its daily and monthly cycle, and he sees these constant variations that are inherent in this cycle akin to the roles that certain people play in our lives: children, parents, friends, and mentors, drifting in and out of day-to-day living, yet wielding a an undeniable power whether distant or close, whether for better or worse.

His reality is what remains with him, after the day is done...it is what struck him that day when he drove through the marsh. It is a reflection of his own state of mind and emotion.

The artist passed away May 22nd, 2004. He was the husband and partner of fellow artist, Peggy Duncan.

* A note about Edition sizes and print quality on Jon Nelson's giclee prints

Edition sizes represent the entire edition to be printed no matter the size of the print chosen. When the Edition is sold out there will be a very limited number of Artists' proofs (25) and that will be all. Each print is numbered and signed by the late artists' wife. Each is printed on a heavy 100% cotton paper with archival inks. With proper care and framing these should last 75 years without fading.

The only exception to Edition Size is the two edition printing of "Horse Whispers". The Artist started a small size 14x9 print in edition of 150. Also the large size 24x16 print in an edition of 75.

Most prints can be printed on canvas if preferred for an additional small charge. Prints on canvas are also UV protected and come rolled ready to stretch and frame without glass.
