Robert Wood And Red Skelton Paintings

By Darren Hartley


Robert Wood paintings were known for their depiction of the California coast, the Rocky Mountain landscapes and the springtime flowering of the Texas Bluebonnets. It is purported that Robert Wood, most probable than not, painted more works on the United States landscape than any other artist in the annals of American art history.

Among the popularly reproduced works in the annals of art history are the Robert Wood paintings. Because collectors can easily obtain a copy of these works, there are questions that enter their minds. Is the copy they have on hand an original or a reproduction? If it is an original, when and where was it done? How does this copy compare to other Robert Wood paintings as far as quality is concerned?

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.

Because they fetch as much as thousands of dollars, Red Skelton paintings have proven to be sound investments. Their being intensely moving creations offering a whimsical feeling of brightness and cheerfulness have been recognized as delights both for collectors and critics.
