Brad Teare
Brad Teare (born 1956)[1] is a Utah-based landscape artist working in oils, acrylics, and woodcuts.
Teare was educated at University of Idaho and Utah State University.[3] He subsequently moved to New York City where he freelanced for The New York Times.[4]
Teare is a landscape painter and noted woodcut artist.[5] In 2006 his woodblock print "Rock Moss" won the Deseret Morning News $2,500 Purchase Award.[6]
Teare has done book covers for James Michener and Anne Tyler.[7] In 1992, he created a comic called Cypher, later published as a book. A spin-off comic, The Subterranean, has subsequently been created and released online. In 1997, he illustrated Dance, Pioneer, Dance!, a children's book by Rick Walton about westbound American pioneers, written in verse resembling a caller's chant for a square dance at a hoedown.[8]
Teare worked as an artist for The Friend, children's magazine of the LDS Church, until his retirement in late 2018,[4] and teaches occasional courses through Weber State University[9] and on his YouTube channel that has had over 1.7 million views.[10] He was married to the late American trompe-l'œil artist Debra Teare.[11]
