Up for consideration is a Wildlife painting by important and influential
artist Clayton B Seagears of NY. The painting measures 10 by 14 inches and is dates April of 1977. It is signed in the lower right and titled "Like a Cheap Guided Tour Kid?" with further explanation by the artist in the comments section. "Zebra Foal from Serengeti Uganda. Bird is an Ethopian Paradise Flycatcher {purchased stuffed) in Addis Abba. The tag sports the address of 495 Galleon Lane Naples Florida 33940 which was probably the artists' home or possibly he rented a room as a studio at the residential address. If you have any questions or something to share please message me. This may have been in the style of a postage stamp competition or something along that line...as it represents African Wildlife...but like the artist suggests it like an introductory to animals most associated with the Continent. This comes from a clean nonsmokers estate. If you have any questions or something to share please message me...Clayton B. Seagears (1901-1983) was an American artist, writer and naturalist. He served as New York State Superintendent of Conservation until 1960, having joined the department in 1937. In 1946 he founded The Conservationist, the department's magazine. He was a prolific illustrator, his work relating to wildlife and conservation appearing in Collier's, The Saturday Evening Post, American Gun, The Hunter's Encyclopedia and Outdoors Unlimited. In 1953, his design won the national competition for the annual Federal Migratory Bird Hunting and Conservation Stamp.Warmest Regards,JohnnyJohnnyCrystal Est. 1987
