"Everett Raymond Kinstler: Pulps to Portraits"

As part of its Distinguished Illustrators Series, Norman Rockwell Museum presents "Everett Raymond Kinstler: Pulps to Portraits," on view at the Museum from March 10 through May 28, 2012.
Highly-regarded as a prominent American portraitist, Everett Raymond Kinstler began his career as a comic book artist and illustrator working for the popular publications of his day. The artist's original illustrations and portraits of noted celebrities-from Katharine Hepburn, Tony Bennett, and Tom Wolfe to artists James Montgomery Flagg, Alexander Calder, and Will Barnet will be on view in a lively installation that explores the process of capturing likenesses of his subjects for posterity.

I collect old western comics and Everett Raymond Kinstler is certainly one of the best of that era. Thank you for that very interesting video.

Amazing interview. Thank you.

Lol HEY @Chycho...so funny to see you watching the same video. I heard about Kinstler from reading an interview with great EC artist George Evans who raved about Kinstler's talent. But also said that even as a teenager that Kinstler told Evan that somics was just his stepping stone and he would get out of it as soon as possible...and he did.
