Jim Daly a une personalité modeste et est réfractaire à la célébrité. La douceur et la nostalgie exprimées dans ses portraits d'enfants lui ont valu un grand intérêt auprès des collectionneure.

Né en Oklahoma, il a grandi dans l'ouest. Il s'intéresse très tôt à l'oeuvre de Norman Rockwell. Dès lors, il savait qu'il voulait devenir peintre. Ses parents conservent une de ses premières peintured représentant la vieille vitrine d;un barbier. Dès seize ans, il a un intérêt pour les choses du passé.

Après son service militaire au milieu des années 60, Jim étudie la nuit au "Los Angeles Art Center College of Design" tandis que le jour, il travaille pour une compagnie d'aviation. Quelques années plus tard, il peut se consacrer à temps complet à son art. Sa femme Carole et leur fils maintenant adulte, posent fréquemment pour lui.

Plusieurs peintures de Jim appartiennent à des collections privées ou publiques et ont gagné plusieurs prix dont l'excellence de la reproduction de scènes de la vie américaine, le prix dispensé par le "Favell Museum".

A propos de Jim Daly

Soft spoken and modest, Jim Daly seems a reluctant celebrity, and it is his tender and nostalgic portrayals of children that have earned him a wide and ardent following among collectors.

Born in Oklahoma and raised throughout the West, Jim developed an early appreciation for the art of Norman Rockwell and at a young age, he knew that he wanted to be a painter himself. His parents still own one of Jim's earliest works, a painting of an old fashioned barbershop. Even at age 13, he had an interest in the past.

After a stint in the army, in the mid-1960's Jim studied nights at the Los Angeles Art Center College of Design, while working during the day at an aerospace company. Within just a few years, he was able to devote himself entirely to his art. His wife Carole and their now grown-up sons, frequently modelled for him.

Jim's paintings are in many private and corporate art collection and have won a wealth of awards. These include the Favell Museum's Western Awards for excellence in portraying early American life realistically and accurately.We are fortunate in that some of his works have been granted a license to be copied into jigsaw puzzles. These we show here as part of our jigsaw collection, along with oither well established artists.
