      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">The Adirondack Guide</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Winslow Homer was born in Boston, Massachusetts, and became an apprentice to a lithographer when he was 19 years old. By the time he was 21, Homer had established a successful freelance career as a magazine illustrator and contributed to magazines like “Harper’s Weekly” and “Ballou’s Pictorial.” Most of his early works were engravings, characterized by simplified forms, clean outlines and dramatic contrasts of dark and light. These initial qualities remained constant and were important foundations that would follow him throughout his career.</p>

      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/homer/Homer_SelfPortrait.jpg" alt="Self-Portrait  ***YES, this is the correct name of the picture" width="auto"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Self-Portrait</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">Homer opened up his first studio in New York City in 1859, and officially began his career as a painter. He was sent by “Harper’s Weekly” to the front lines of the Civil War during this time to paint pictures of mundane camp life and scenes at the battlefield. After he returned home from the war, Homer set to work on creating a number of war related paintings which are noted today by art critics for their realism and objectivity.</p>
      <p  class="wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s"><img src="uploads/artists/artists_a-k/homer/Homer_HomeSweetHome.jpg" alt="Home Sweet Home 1863" border="0"></p>
      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Home Sweet Home 1863</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">In 1867, Homer traveled to Paris, France where he worked and lived for a year. While he was there, he honed his landscape painting skills and continued to work for “Harper’s Weekly.” While he showed great interest in the techniques used by the Impressionists during this time, his existing paintings show little proof that he implemented them.</p>

      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">From the 1870’s to the 1880’s, Homer became known for his idyllic scenes of young adults courting, children playing and farm life in general. He began to paint in watercolor in 1873, and unwittingly began to create works that would create a big impact on the use of the medium in the art world. These watercolor paintings were original, fresh and exquisitely executed, yet loose and spontaneous just the same. Homer loved the medium so much that he was even quoted as saying “I will live by my watercolors.”</p>

      <div class="boldcap wow fadeInRight" data-wow-delay=".4s">Waiting an Answer</div>
      <p class="wow fadeInLeft" data-wow-delay=".4s">By 1875, Homer retired from working as a commercial illustrator, and began to travel widely. He spent two years on the English coast of Northumberland, and created many seaside scenes. Upon his return to the United States, Homer settled in Maine, and continued to paint the seascapes that he is best known for today. During the winter months, Homer also took up residencies in Florida, Cuba and the Bahamas, and also spent some of his summers in the Adirondack Mountains and in Minerva, New York. He worked right up until his death at the age of 74, leaving his painting “Shoot the Rapids” unfinished.</p>
