Portraits of Two Artists

Features master painters Hughie Lee-Smith and Jacob Lawrence. In addition to visual sequences of the artist's work, the program includes an inside look at a class taught by Lee-Smith at New York's prestigious Art Students League; both artists working in their studios; a trip by ferry to an island in Puget Sound where Lawrence works on a commissioned mural; and an animation of the illustrations from Lawrence's children's book "Harriet and the Promised Land".
