Description

Get that baby some sunscreen! Not much housekeeping going on here. It's play time!

This is not Alex Ross of 'Marvels' and 'Kingdom Come' fame. This is a similarly named mid-20th century artist who provided many covers for Good Housekeeping as well as interior work for leading periodicals of his day such as The Saturday Evening Post and (a very different) Cosmopolitan. Here is a documentary about his philosophy and work process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykQnxdSEZ4I

What ends is there to say, WOW! The ocean waves rolling into the beach, the beach sand glistening, and of course a perfectly painted baby. Great art.

A fascinating bit of a side of Ross I truly didn't know. Thank you for the lesson and congrats on this true slice of history!
