Ruthven</div> </div> <div class="Text">John A. Ruthven, naturalist, author, lecturer, and internationally acknowledged master of wildlife art is often called the "20th Century Audubon." Ruthven uses the same techniques as his famous predecessor. After studying and researching his subject thoroughly, he sketches to rigid specifications then renders the original painting with great detail. <br><br> His fascination with nature began as a young boy in Cincinnati. After serving in World War II, he entered the Cincinnati Art Academy. He opened a commercial art studio in 1946 with the goal of building a career in wildlife art. In 1960 he entered the Federal Duck Stamp competition and won with his Redhead Ducks. In 1971 Ruthven founded Wildlife Internationale`, Inc. to publish and distribute his limited edition prints. Ruthven was recognized as Duck`s Unlimited First Artist of the Year, First Ohio Duck Stamp Artists, and First Ohio Animal Stamp/Print Artist. </div> <div class="text_line"><br></div> <div class="FloatLeft"> <center><A HREF="/gh/DisplayLargeImage+Username=ruthven+ServiceName=Welcome+PIC=3+Prefix=Large" target="_blank"><font FACE="Times New Roman,Arial" size="2" color="">Enlarge Image</font></a></center><div style="font-size: 5px"><br></div> <h3 style="margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; padding:0px; text-align: center;"> </h3> <A HREF="/gh/DisplayLargeImage+Username=ruthven+ServiceName=Welcome+PIC=3+Prefix=Large" target="_blank"> <IMG class="MainImg" SRC="http://pictures.ezpics.net/Photos/Art/ezpics.net/ruthven/Welcome/3.jpg?07109Ywc1HQVe6H" ALT=""Penguins On Parade" -John A.

A celebration is being planned for the spring of 2014. In studing the life history of the passenger pigeon from writings of John J Audubon, Alexander Wilson and others, they flew in huge numbers sometimes into the billions in one flock. Judging from these descriptions I am creating my painting to reflect what they said about these birds flying in "corkscrew masses". This scene includes the historic Bird Run at the Cincinnati Zoo. These buildings were the oldest structures of any zoo in America. They are all gone except one that was saved as a memorial to the Passenger Pigeon." <br><br> John will host his ANNUAL CHRISTMAS OPEN HOUSE on Sunday, November 11, 2012. He will release his newest painting "READY, SET, GO!" and a limited edition of giclee' prints, many other limited editions, original paintings, original drawings, books and note cards. Join John for a fun afternoon in historic Georgetown, Ohio just about an hour east of downtown Cincinnati. </div> <div class="text_line"><br></div> <div style="font-size: 1px"><br></div> <center><div class="ExitText" align="left"></div></center> </table> </FONT> <BR> <center> <div class="Footer"> John A.
