Rockwell Kent may not be a household name, but most people have probably seen his distinct paintings: smooth and sometimes stark landscapes that often edge into the mystical. Kent was ahead of his time in terms of the ecologically conscious nature of his paintings. “I'm not trying to make people love my art,” he said. “Through my art, I'm trying to make people love nature. That's all.” He found his greatest inspiration in the natural world. In 1918 he ventured into what was then the American frontier of Alaska. He kept a journal of his experiences there, and in the calm and expansive wilderness he wrote, “These are the times in life — when nothing happens — but in quietness the soul expands.”
