American, 1899-1983
Charles Wheeler Locke Born 1899, Cincinnati Ohio Died 1983, Garrison New York Charles Wheeler Locke – painter, illustrator, print maker, and teacher – was born in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1899. He studied at the Cincinnati Art Academy and later with Joseph Pennell at the Art Students League in New York City. Noticing Locke’s talents, Pennell hired him as his primary assistant before selecting him to succeed him as Instructor of Lithography. Locke held that position between 1922 and 1937. Beginning in 1925, his lithographs of the docks, wharfs, and streets of New York and Brooklyn gained international recognition. He was a member of the Society of American Etchers, National Academy of Design, American Print Makers, and the Century Club.

Edition 7/30. Emil Armin was born in Radautz, Austria in 1883. By the age of 10, Armin was orphaned and was raised by his older siblings.

He began studying at the Art Institute of Chicago in 1907, but financial difficulties forced him to start and stop a number of times, finally graduating in 1920. He studied with George Bellows and Randall Davey. Armin was an integral part of Chicago’s 57th Street Art Colony and exhibited in both the more avant-garde Chicago No-Jury Society Shows, as well as the more formal and conventional Chicago Society of Artists Exhibitions, the Chicago Renaissance Society and Art Institute of Chicago (1922-1949) exhibitions.
