This early portrait of Wayne is in the collection of John Wayne. I gave him this portrait in exchange for a charcoal sketch (on this site) that he autographed for me.
Wow Superb! My Dads fav cowboy along with Clint Eastwood. Wonderful work!
Artist Reply: Thanks Ginger! John Wayne is a favorite of mine also along with James Stewart, Eastwood, Walter Brennan, Ward Bond, Andy Devine and especially, Gary Cooper who is my all time favorite. If he had lived longer he might have made a western with Wayne and Stewart. That would have been a western!
