Art Sz: 13 3/4"H x 11"W Board Sz: 20"H x 15"W Watercolor painting on board by artist George Wells, know as the "Rug Maker To The Stars." This medium-sized piece features a design for a rug with a tennis theme. Signed by the artist and produced in 1970 in New York, USA, this handmade piece is a personalized creation specifically for Mrs. Merrill Jr, possibly for a bar at a tennis court in Cherry wood, Locust Valley, NY. George Wells (1906–1988) was a master craftsman and visionary designer renowned as the "rug maker to the stars" for his custom hand-hooked pictorial and abstract rugs. Biography and Career: Before entering the textile arts full-time, Wells worked in retail designing store interiors, merchandise, and window displays.

High-Profile Clientele: Over a 32-year career, his custom creations adorned the homes of prominent figures and celebrities, including Audrey Hepburn, the Rockefellers, the Du Ponts, and Richard Rodgers.…
