About This Print:In a closely contested race on Long Island Sound, Herreshoff's breakthrough design, Gloriana, is shown crossing the bow of the newly launched Wasp, another of Herreshoff's evolutionary designs. Artist's Biography:Firmly established as one of the world’s premier marine painters, John MeCray’s paintings and limited edition prints have earned him an international reputation for excellence. MeCray grew up in Cape May, New Jersey, one block away from the Atlantic Ocean. Upon completing high school, he was accepted at the Philadelphia College of Art where he majored in illustration and painting. MeCray’s career as a freelance illustrator began even before his graduation in 1961. The following year he was asked back to his alma mater to teach a weekly drawing class. In 1976, after his third offshore sailing trip to the Virgin Islands, he gave up his successful Philadelphia based illustration career and moved to Newport, Rhode Island to fully devote himself to marine painting. Offshore yacht deliveries between New England, Bermuda, and the Caribbean have given the artist a personal knowledge of the effects of wind, sea and light on a variety of sailing vessels. His masterful paintings of classic racing yachts clearly convey their power and grace. Experience, perspective and passion for maritime art set his work apart in a field known for richness in tradition. Payment:Orders within the state of California will 8.5% sales tax upon sale.
