His style hardly varied throughout his career. Wyeth led a quiet life, seldom travelled and spent most of his time in the states of Maine and Pennsylvania. Determined to devote himself to painting, in 1943 he was offered a contract to produce the cover illustrations for The Saturday Evening Post, as his father had done, but turned it down. It was such a resounding success that it sold out on the first day. His work was first exhibited at The Wyeth Family, a show organised by the Philadelphia Art Alliance in 1936, and his first one-man exhibition took place the following year. In 1933Wyeth became acquainted with the watercolours of Winslow Homer and the powerful impression they had on him prompted him to emulate the Old Master and to adopt watercolour as his favourite medium during his early years as a painter.

Most of us do this more than once as we go through life and so do the people we work with. Why would this interest the coaches, counselors, leaders and others who read these words? Like most of my closest friends, Miller and some Relevant editors are around 40, looking back on their life journeys and thinking about where they want to go next. Here he wrote about looking at our lives and shaping new life stories that could be visions for how we live in the future. I read the book when it first came out and but was more impacted by Miller’s A Million Miles in a Thousand Years.

Relevant calls Miller“the voice of a generation” whose “groundbreaking” memoir wrestled with questions of faith, doubt and worldview.
