Andrew Wyeth, one of the USA's most acclaimed artists, died this morning at 
the age of 91, according to The News Journal. “Andy Wyeth died in his sleep
peacefully at 4:25 today,” Phyllis Wyeth, his daughter-in-law, tells the paper.

In 2007, President Bush presented a National Medal of the Arts to Wyeth in
recognition of "a lifetime of paintings whose meticulous realism have captured
the American consciousness, and whose austere vision has displayed the depth
and dignity of American life."

Here's Wyeth's website.

I took my out of town Brother in Law to the Brandywine River Museum two weekends ago. If any of you guys are in the Philly area take in that museum which is just a short drive on US1 from Longwood Gardens. You could make a nice day of it.
