Tom Lovell: A collection of 69 works (HD)
Description: "Tom Lovell (1909-1997) was an American illustrator, famous for his work in popular magazines as well as his images of the American West. Lovell was known for painstakingly researching his subjects for authenticity, yet never abandoning the dynamic action and human emotion used for his fictional illustrations. He considered himself a “storyteller with a brush, a custodian of the past.
Lovell was born in New York City, February 5, 1909, to Henry S. Lovell Jr (a telephone engineer) and Edith Scott (Russell) Lovell. He was the middle child with an older brother (Bob) and a younger sister (Margaret). During his childhood, the family lived in Nutley, New Jersey.[2] As a youth, Lovell developed an interest in art and the American Indian. When visiting the New York Museum of Natural History, he would sketch the Native American weapons, clothing and artifacts.[3] Later, as high school valedictorian, he would give a speech titled, “Ill treatment of the American Indian by the U. S. Government.
He first began illustrating while enrolled as an undergraduate student at Syracuse University, selling his illustrations to popular pulp magazines. At Syracuse, he met future illustrators Harry Anderson and Elton Fax. His early career centered on creating covers and interior illustrations for inexpensive pulp magazines such as: Ace-High Western, Clues, Complete, Detective Tales, Dime Detective, Rangeland Romances, Star Western, Top-Notch, The Shadow, Courtroom Stories, Popular Western, Triple Western, and Clues.
As Lovell advanced in his career (and as pulp magazine publications declined), he moved on to illustrating for “slick” magazines and advertisements. Before WWII, he illustrated for The American, Woman's Home Companion, and Cosmopolitan.
In 1934, he married Gloyd “Pink” Simmons, eventually having two children. The family first lived in Norwalk, Connecticut, moving to Westport, Connecticut in 1940. At the time, Westport was home to many artists, including fellow illustrators Al Dorne, Harold Von Schmidt, John Clymer, Stevan Dohanos, and Robert Loughweed.
During WWII, Lovell joined the Marine Corps Reserve. He and fellow artist John Clymer illustrated the Marine Corps magazine, Leatherneck, as well as the Marine Corps Gazette. Lovell also completed a series of large paintings on Marine Corps history. These works are now in the collection at the Marine Corps headquarters in Washington, D.C.
After the war, Lovell continued to illustrate for magazines, including McCall's, Redbook, Ladies Home Journal, and Colliers.[8] He also painted a series of historical subjects for National Geographic Magazine, illustrating articles on the Vikings, Alexander the Great, the Bible, and the American Civil War.
Lovell also completed a series of paintings for the Church of Latter Day Saints. His colleague, Harry Anderson, had already been working on a series of Biblical paintings. Lovell took on the illustration of scenes from the Book of Mormon.[10] Anderson’s and Lovell’s works remain well-known among Mormons and are still used in the Church of Latter Day Saints’ publications.
During and after the 1960s, Lovell increasingly focused on the American Southwest. In 1969, Lovell was commissioned by George and Gladys Abell to produce a series of paintings for the future Permian Basin Petroleum Museum in Midland Texas. In 1995, Tom Lovell said the paintings he did for the Abell Foundation were "some of the most important commissions in (his) life.In 1975, Lovell and his family moved to Santa Fe, New Mexico, continuing to create works centering on Native Americans and the American Southwest.
Lovell was a member of the Society for Illustrators, eventually being named as a Hall of Fame Laureate in 1974. He was also a member of the Cowboy Artists of America. In 1992, both the National Academy of Western Art and the National Cowboy Hall of Fame honored Lovell with a Lifetime Achievement Award. He was also a two-time winner of the National Academy of Western Art’s Prix de West.
In 1997, both Tom Lovell and his daughter Dorothy died tragically in a car crash in Santa Fe."

Thanks for the upload

[@MustafaJackson]

Thank you for sharing this wonderful video of the illustrations of TOM LOVELL, he is one of my top 10 favorite American Illustrators. I never tire of seeing his work in any format. The music you have chosen for this video is also very good and appropriate.
I would like to point out one mistake in this showcase of Mr. Lovell's Art; the images at 0:26 and 4:15 are illustrated by DEAN CORNWELL. If you go online and look for a book called DEAN CORNWELL: Dean of Illustration by Patricia Janis Broder you will note that she has used said illustration for her cover.

La vie
Lovell est né à New York le 5 février 1909, de Henry S. Lovell Jr, ingénieur en téléphonie, et d'Edith Scott (Russell) Lovell.Il était le deuxième de trois enfants. [4] Il était un lecteur assidu comme un enfant, et bien qu'il n'a reçu aucune formation au début de l' art , il a souvent visité le Musée d'histoire naturelle à New York, en commençant une fascination pour les objets amérindiens et des armes. En 1927, il était le porte-parole de son lycée et, à la fin de ses études, il avait parlé du "mauvais traitement infligé à l'Indien par le gouvernement des États-Unis". Il a fréquenté l'Université de Syracuse de 1927 à 1931.
Lovell a épousé Gloyd "Pink" Simmons en 1934 et a déménagé à Norwalk, dans le Connecticut. Ils ont eu deux enfants, David et Deborah. [5] En 1940, Lovell et sa famille s'installèrent dans une colonie d'artistes à Westport, dans le Connecticut, où il devint un ami proche de Harold Von Schmidt, John Clymer et Robert Loughweed.En 1972, il s'installe à Santa Fe, au Nouveau-Mexique. En 1977, il s'installe dans un site de quatre hectares à Santa Fe et y construit une maison en adobe et un studio.
Lovell est décédé dans un accident de voiture au New Mexico le 29 juin 1997, à l'âge de 88 ans. Deborah, sa fille âgée de 48 ans, a également été tuée dans l'accident.

What do you think about the name Tom Lovell asking for a friend

[@saruseka]

Nice paintings, but you showed one TWICE, a biblical painting that’s no less was used as the cover of a book published in 2000 about DEAN CORNWELL.... respectfully, please correct and double check other entries...Thank You

[@clearlake3492]

Okay, I can accept Norman Rockwell being in LearnFromMasters, because at least he was the supreme illustrator of the 20th century and he did produce the occasional 'proper' work of art. But Tom Lovell? Come on!
