Jack Fellows has been called a perfectionist at heart, and that attitude toward his work has created a passion for recording the essence of his subjects.
Jack's interest in art began as soon as he could pick up a pencil at about the age of four years old. Painting professionally since 1967, Fellows has drawn wide acclaim and numerous honors for his oils & pastel paintings in galleries and art shows throughout the world.
His favorite subjects, ethnic scenes, World War II vintage aircraft, and especially the Pacific Theater, at first seem to be an odd combination of subject matter. Fellows explains that he paints pictures of scenes that are not likely to be seen any longer. Such influences as having a wife of European descent and a father that was a Boeing Aircraft engineer that worked on the original B-17 project, further explains a basis for his subject selections.
The historic qualities of his paintings are emphasized through his attention to graduations of light, the precision in which he assigns tonal weight to highlight and shadow, creative use of brilliant colors and the feeling of depth that he creates. Fellows draws upon technical skills acquired during his training as a commercial artist, and paints with a realism that pulls the viewer emotionally into the painting.
His works are found in corporate, private, and museum collections as well as various publications worldwide
Jack fellows Signed & Numbered Limited Edition Print "Lost"
Almost 20 hours out from Lae, New Guinea, on the morning of July 2, 1937, Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan are lost over the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean. After more than a month circling the globe in a highly modified Lockheed 10 Electra transport, they are trying to make Howland Island, then Hawaii, before finishing the flight in California. After her last communications with the Coast Guard cutter Itasca, waiting for the aircraft off Howland, she and Noonan disappeared forever in a mystery that has never been conclusively solved.
All Limited Edition prints are signed and numbered (S/N) by the artist. Limited Edition prints are restricted to a certain number. For example, if 400 prints are made from an original painting, once they’re gone, that’s it. There is no limit to the number of open edition prints of a particular painting. That’s why Limited Edition prints are more expensive — and more valuable to collectors — than "open" edition. Rare objects are more valuable.
All Limited Edition artwork is subject to availability at time of order. Although seller strives to remain currrent as to inventory, seller reserves the right to cancel a sale if item is no longer available at time of purchase.
