The Paintings of Eldridge Hardie: Art of a Life in Sport

The first artist ever to have a one-man retrospective at the National Bird Dog Museum (Grand Junction, Tenn.), Eldridge Hardie paints oil and watercolor scenes of hunters chasing grouse and ducks; trout in Colorado's South Platte River; fly fishermen; noble-looking Labradors and pointers; and other sporting scenes. The Paintings of Eldridge Hardie: Art of a Life in Sport gathers many of these works which showcase some of America's most beautiful wilderness spots, from South Carolina to Wyoming along with drawings and notes from Hardie's sketchpad and some extensive captions by Hardie with background information on the scenes in the paintings.
