Paintings Of Robert Wood And Red Skelton

By Darren Hartley


Robert Wood paintings consisted of landscape paintings of California, the Rocky Mountains and Texas. Robert Wood reached his maturity as an artist in the late 1920s. It was during this period that came out with a prodigious output, completing one painting a day.

In the history of art, Robert Wood paintings has the distinction of being among the most widely reproduced works. Mainly because of the number of these Robert Wood artistic productions, they can be found in all of the fifty states comprising the United States. Not only there, they are also available in many foreign countries.

Reproductions of Robert Wood paintings are printed on textured surfaces, purposely so to make it appear to be a painting for an amateurish eye. However, the texture being consistent throughout the image, does not follow the form as actual brush strokes do. The texture of these prints ranged from crow-foot to hen-scratch. The painting is printed on cardboard and not on canvas.

Known for their caricatures of smiling lovable clowns and world renowned characters, Red Skelton paintings can be found among the most prestigious and private of collections all over the world. Red Skelton perfected his painting talents over the years, now hugely recognized and acclaimed throughout the globe.

There are also Red Skelton paintings in existence that created beautiful still life and landscapes. Red began producing artwork in 1943, but kept his works private for many years. His inspiration for trying his hand at painting came from his visit of a Chicago department store displaying a variety of paintings.

Red Skelton paintings have proven to be sound investments as originals fetched as much as thousands of dollars. They are recognized collector's delights with their provision of a whimsical feeling that brightens and cheers up any room. These intensely moving creations have earned for Red one of the highest honors an artist can receive.
