Jack McLarty

William Jackson (Jack) McLarty (April 24, 1919 – July 10, 2011) was a surrealist painter, printmaker, and teacher of the Pacific Northwest.

History

Born in Seattle, Washington, he moved with his family to Portland, Oregon, in 1921. He attended Benson High School in Portland, the Portland Museum Art School, and the American Artists School in New York (1940–1941). After two years in New York he returned to Portland, and in 1945 he began teaching at the Museum Art School where he remained until his retirement.

Media

McLarty worked in paint (oil, and later acrylic), print (lithograph, serigraph, woodcut, wood engraving, etching), and in a few cases stained glass design and sculpture.
