Charles Partridge Adams (1858 - 1942) American
Charles Partridge Adams (1858 - 1942) Watercolor on Paper, Signed Lower Left, Measures (11.5 x 17.5 inches) w/frame (18 x 24 inches) Young Charles Adams moved from Massachusetts to Denver in 1876 at the age of 18. A year later he began working at the Chain and Hardy bookstore, where he received encouragement for his artistic interests from Helen Henderson Chain, who had been a pupil of the noted artist, George Inness. A three-month camping trip in the Rockies with another young artist in 1881 resulted in numerous sketches and paintings. In 1885 he traveled to the East Coast, and visited the studios of George Inness and Worthington Whittredge, and the following year he visited the California studios of William Keith and Thomas Hill. Though not isolated from other artists, Adams was largely self-taught, experimenting with different styles and techniques and continuing to use those that best served his vision and his subject matter. His paintings were first exhibited publicly in Denver in 1886, and he exhibited work in both local and national shows through 1904.
