T.C. Steele

My famous Hoosier is T.C. Steele or his real name Theodore Clement Steele. He is famous for painting scenery.
I pick him because I am a fan of art and that means he is in my intrest.
He was born in Owen County, IN. September 11, 1847. He moved to Waveland, IN. When he was very young.
When he was young his father died. That meant he had to help the family more. He had to plow the farm now. When he was plowing he tied different colored ribbons to the plow. So he can see them fly.
He went to college at Prep School, Waveland Collegiate Institute.
One of his first paintings were portraits of famous people or just people that want a portrait of them.
He had a wife, her name is Mary Elizabeth Lakin Steele. They had two children Rembrandt
