Churchill EttingerEttinger was born in New Jersey in 1903, and studied art at the National Academy of Design, the Art Students League,
and the New York School of Industrial Arts. He was an avid outdoor sportsman participating in skiing, hunting, and
fishing, as well as being a prolific artist. He produced more than 170 drypoints of the outdoor sporting life, portraying the
true essence of the sportsman artist. Settling in Vermont in the 1950's, he was commissioned by Brown and
Bigelow to complete a series of drypoints and work on Wildlife calendars. Ettinger enjoyed working with his two field dogs,
"Queenie" and "Troubadour," who served as faithful models in creating wonderful images of the charm, intellect, and
gentility of field dogs at work. A great deal of his work was published by Associated American Artists during the
mid-twentieth century.
