About the Item

Royce Roberts (1928-2016) Burnet, Texas Image Size: 18 x 24 Frame Size: 23 x 29 Medium: Oil on Canvas "Oaks and Bluebonnets" Biography Royce Roberts (1928-2016) Royce was born in Hope, Arkansas. He joined the Navy when 17 and went to Houston, Texas when he was discharged. He worked on building houses in Pasadena, but bad weather caused him to quit and go to barber school. He married Barbara in 1950; they have a son and a daughter. When long hair came popular, he took his hobby to his shop and painted when he wasn't busy. A Houston T.V. show did a spot on him about his paintings. A gallery owner told him if he would hang up his scissors, he would buy all his paintings. His bluebonnet paintings sold faster than he could paint them. In 1977 he and his wife sold out in Houston and moved to a small ranch in Burnet, Texas known as the bluebonnet capital of Texas. He built his studio in the barn and raised angora goats for a few years. He lived out his life in the landscape that he loved, and died with his boots on, in his pasture under a grove of trees.

    By Edward Cucuel
    Located in Costa Mesa, CA
    Artist Edward Cucuel and his wife Clara Lotte von Marcard spent their first two decades together in Germany, mostly in a villa on Lake Ammersee in Holzhausen near Munich. It is the works created in this period, mainly outdoor scenes of young women in fashionable attire of the day, that are most collected and appreciated among his works. It’s easy to see why- they capture an elegance and sense of calm and easy leisure- of long days in gardens or by the water.  This is one of those captured moments with a well-dressed woman watching the sailing yacht...
