About this Piece

Kelly Fearing created the "In Passage" Suite in 1995. It consists of three images of different birds "in searching." Using the Solarplate matrix, Fearing created images taken from paintings with additional drawing on acetate which were used as photo-positives on the light-sensitive matrix. The etching process uses light and ordinary water.

About the Artist

William Kelly Fearing, before coming to Austin, taught and painted in the famous Fort Worth Circle, which had an immense influence on mid-century Texas art. He was born in Arkansas, studied art at Louisiana Tech and received his master of fine arts from Columbia University. He was Ashbel Smith Professor of Art at The University of Texas at Austin for 40 years, and in 2002, the Department of Art and Art History presented a 60-year retrospective of his work. That exhibit brought together paintings, drawings, prints and collages from public and private collections throughout the United States and traveled to The University of Texas at Arlington and the Old Jail Art Museum in Albany, TX.
