Now retired from Moore College of Art where he taught for thirty years, Mr. Bye devotes most of his time to painting in and around his native Bucks County, Pennsylvania home.
According to the biography of the artist posted by the Bucks County Museum in Doylestown, Pennsylvania, Ranulph Bye died on November 19, 2003.
He is described as "one of the foremost watercolorists in the country, who since 1953 painted over three-thousand watercolor scenes, mostly rural American landscapes, seascapes, rural America and buildings, especially Victorian style for his book, "Victorian Sketchbook".
A Bucks County regionalist painter tied to the New Hope Colony, Bye was from long-time Pennsylvania family who have held a land grant from William Penn from 1699.

George Howell Gay (American, 1858-1931)
Untitled Landscape, c. late 19th-early 20th century
Watercolor on board
12 x 17 3/4 in.
Framed: 16 1/4 x 22 1/4 in.
Signed lower right: Geo Howell Gay
George H. Gay was well known for his watercolor landscapes, seascapes and paintings of rivers and ships, mostly along the shores of New England. Gay also painted snowscapes, but these are scarcer. It is unusual to find an oil painting by this artist, as he worked mainly in watercolor. Some of his works display a tonalist aesthetic.

He is known to have exhibited at the National Academy of Design in 1890; Boston Art...
