RIP Andrew Wyeth

Andrew Newell Wyeth (July 12, 1917 – January 16, 2009). I saw this evening that Andrew Wyeth passed away at 91.
Many people thought he never surpassed his artist father N.C. Wyeth. But I never thought he had to, he had his own visions and many of them I loved.
Here's his most famous painting, "Christina's World", a painting of a crippled Christina Olson:


There's many other paintings by Wyeth that I like just as well or more so but he'll be mostly remembered for this one.
