Andrew Wyeth: A Secret Life by Richard Meryman

“Ricocheting between love and hate, he is a thicket of opposites—kind, weak, tough, selfish, insecure, egotistical, poetic, wise, elegant, vulgar, naive, and ruthlessly determined. A mischievous anarchist, he is excitable to the point of wildness; his square, boyish face—below wiry, close-cropped light brown hair—is as rubbery as a clown’s. Laughter puckers the corners of his bright blue, hooded, conspiratorial eyes into crow’s-feet. He clicks his teeth as he cackles with delight.”

—Richard Meryman, 1996
