Norman Lowell - United States

Art Brokerage: Norman Lowell American Artist: b. 1927. Norman Lowell was born in 1927 in rural Iowa. He was raised on a farm, learning the value of a strong work ethic. But even as he grew into a strong man, capable of long, hard hours of physical labor, he grew increasingly interested in expressing himself through art. He read countless books on the classical masters of western art, studying their techniques. Through his high school and early adult years, he taught himself the ability to paint, and began laying the groundwork for the distinctive styles that he would master. In the mid-1960s, Norman and Libby moved their family to Anchorage so Norman could open a private art school in a city with a population large enough to make it successful. He continued to develop his own styles, creating mediums of his own to better achieve the texture and depth he desired in his work. He taught in Anchorage from 1965-1972. Desiring the homestead life again, the Lowells moved back to Anchor Point, and Norman constructed a small art studio/gallery on his homestead land. The new Sterling Highway now connected to the property, and soon visitors from around the world were coming to the studio on the hill. Norman hung an old bell in front of the studio, so that visitors could summon him from his gardens and greenhouse if they wished to meet and visit with him. In 2013, following a long battle with glaucoma, Norman Lowell was diagnosed as legally blind. His 2017 works are the final paintings of his career. Listings wanted.
