Country House in Eucalyptus Grove - California Landscape in Oil on Canvas
Idyllic depiction of a country home near a group of eucalyptus trees by Henry B. Goode (Hungarian-American, 1882-1966). A small house with a red roof is nestled in among a grove of tall eucalyptus trees. The trees have a pink and purple glow about them, implying that a bright sunset is taking place behind the viewer.

Frame size: 28"H x 33"W
Canvas size: 23"H x 28"W
Henry B. Goode (Hungarian-American, 1882-1966) was born in Budapest, Hungary. He began painting boats sailing the blue Danube in Budapest at the age of 4-1/2. His art education continued in Budapest, Paris and New York. Goode immigrated to the United States as a teenager and settled in New York, eventually he played cello in the New York Philharmonic orchestra with Victor Herbert; he also became prominent in the field of dress design.
Goode moved to California in 1922, where he began to focus on landscape paintings, as well as pen and inks of the classic silent screen and early stars of the 1930s and 1940s. Though Goode was known for his landscapes and drawings of the burgeoning stars of early years, he was also known for his portraits and sculptures. President FDR kept a small statuette on his desk created by Goode (soldiers with shovels) called "Faith, Hope and Charity," and sent an acknowledgement to Goode which read "If they haven't got enough shovels, let them lean on each other."
In the early 1940s in Los Angeles, the Second Baptist Church commissioned Goode to paint five religious murals, and Goode painted another 14 at various other churches. These murals are currently archived at the church and available for viewing. Goode also started an art school that was popular in the 1930s-40s, before moving on to become the art director at Los Angeles Pacific College in 1948.

- I Came to Where the Lone Pilgrim Lay, River Landscape Oil on Canvas, Western ArtBy Michael Ome UntiedtLocated in Whitefish, MTI Came to Where the Lone Pilgrim Lay by Michael Ome Untiedt Oil on Canvas, 36" x 48", 43" x 55" (framed), hanging hardware included. From the artist: "In Memory of Tom Horn: This is another of my feeble attempts to break down, to rage against the tyranny of time. I have fought this battle for a half century, yet my limbs grow slower, my hair more moon-bleached. I ponder as I apply brush strokes to the canvas, what thoughts pass through the viewer of this work a hundred years hence, two hundred years later? Will they know what I carry in my heart today? Am I on a great mandala of life, and will I return one day to this same experience, or am I adrift on a great "river" flowing endlessly through the Cosmos, heeding shoal water and seeking shoreline that is forever changing? A dear friend passed this week from the plague scourging our fair land. When and where will I hear his sweet self deprecating laughter again?" Born and raised in rural southeastern Colorado, Michael Ome Untiedt maintains a studio in Denver. Traveling extensively, he is known as a painter of the world who sees with a westerner’s eye. Through the color, brush strokes, and symbolic subject matter of his paintings, he attempts to examine the human predicament and its connections to the landscape and history of the American West. He is driven to portray twenty-first-century psychology on a nineteenth-century saddle! Untiedt has participated in numerous shows including the Western Masters Art Show and Sale, Settler’s West Miniatures Show and Art of the American West...Category
