George Jo Mess began studying painting but was exposed to etching and printmaking largely by his artist-wife, Evelynne. And it was printmaking for which he is most remembered. Today’s work, Winter Magic (artist’s title), is nicely representative. It shows Mess' treatment of trees and his interest in a slightly skewed perspective. We’ve put several works on paper through conservation lately, this piece included. It’s in marvelous shape, housed in an acid free double mat and simple black frame and ready to hang.
