| Details: | An American original, Will Henry Stevens (1881–1949) was a modernist painter and naturalist who was as inspired by the writings of Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Walt Whitman as he was by the work of the American painters John Henry Twachtman and James Abbott McNeill Whistler and the Chinese painters of the Song dynasty. Stevens was a native of Vevay, Indiana, an Ohio River town, where his father, an apothecary, taught him the rudiments of chemistry and the techniques of emulsions, both of which came to play a critical role in his later experiments with different media. While working with his father he also learned to grind and mix his own paints.
