Paint and Canvas

Paint and Canvas: A Life of TC Steele traces the path of Steele's career as an artist from his early studies in Gemany to his determination to paint what he knew best, the Indiana landscape. Steele, along with fellow artists William Forsyth, Otto Stark, Richard Gruelle and L. Ottis Adams, became a member of the renowned Hoosier Group and became a leader in the development of Midwestern art. In addition to creating artwork, Steele wrote and gave lectures, served on numerous art juries to select paintings and prizes for national and international exhibitions and helped organize pioneering art associations and societies.
