Guy Anderson
Guy Anderson (November 20, 1906 – April 30, 1998) was an American Abstract Expressionist painter. Along with Kenneth Callahan, Morris Graves, and Mark Tobey, Anderson was identified in a ''Life'' Magazine article as one of the "northwest mystics," also known as the Northwest School.
==Early life==
Anderson grew up in a semi-rural setting north of Seattle, in the town of Edmonds, Washington, where he'd been born on November 20, 1906. Some of his early paintings portrayed his family home. A piano was an important presence in his house. His father, Irving Anderson, was a carpenter-builder and also a musician. From an early age Guy was intrigued by other cultures; he was particularly fascinated by the woodcarvings of Northern Coastal native tribes, and by the collection of Japanese prints owned by his piano teacher. As soon as he was old enough to do so on his own, he began commuting to the Seattle Public Library by bus to study art books.〔Ament, Deloris Tarzan; ''Iridescent Light: The Emergence of Northwest Art'', University of Washington Press, 2002; ISBN 0295981474〕〔
After graduating from Edmonds High School, Anderson briefly studied with Alaskan scenic painter Eustace Ziegler, who encouraged Anderson's career-long preference for oil paints, and taught him how to draw nude figures, which would become important features of his work.〔〔Wehr, Wesley, ''The Eighth Lively Art: Conversations with Painters, Poets, Musicians, and the Wicked Witch of the West''; University of Washington Press, 2000; ISBN 029580257X〕
In 1929, Anderson applied for and won a Tiffany Foundation scholarship and spent the summer studying at the Tiffany estate on Long Island, New York. As there were no art museums in Seattle at that time, he delighted in weekend visits to the Museum of Modern Art in Manhattan, examining the works of Rembrandt, Goya, Whistler, and many others.〔
