Josephine Liddell was a regional Alaska painter best known for her pastel portraits of Alaskan sled dogs, although in the 1960s she turned more to the region's landscape for subject matter. She was the daughter of Nina Crumrine (1889-1959), also an Alaska artist.
Josephine Liddell was born April 16, 1917, in Seattle, and as a young girl, in 1923, went north with her mother to live with Nina's uncle, H.V.McGee, in Ketchikan after her parents' divorce. She received her first training (showing 500 of 1706 characters). |
