About the Item

Artist Commentary: Before this painting I had tried many times to capture the colors of exotic waters, aquamarines, greens and blues. Creating these colors with acrylics is a serious project. With this painting I feel I am getting closer. Titled "Found" as opposed to the great poem by John Milton "Paradise Lost".... Keywords: window, perspective, sand, beach, water, clouds, rock, Artist Biography: Robert Crooker was born in Massachusetts in 1951. A life long Red Sox fan, he saw the likes of Frank Malzone, Yaz, George Scott, Rico, Jim Lonborg all play in years gone by. He has been married for over 27 years with 4 children, and 2 grandchildren. In the Mid-1970’s, Robert started collecting Vintage Disney Collectibles dated from the 1930’s and 40’s. His passion for collecting grew so rapidly that in the 1980’s it became a business. He bought and sold “DISNEYANA” worldwide, realizing thousands of dollars for single pieces of rare highly sought after Disney merchandise. Robert is the leading world expert on the values of these collectibles. As an adventure in American art, these rarities were created during a time when toy manufacturers had art departments employed with many artists that created some of the most beautiful children’s toys ever created. While running Disneyana – Mouse Man Ink business, Robert was painting acrylic on canvas. After EBAY came along and stole the show Robert went on a 20 year hiatus from collecting and painting. Upon his return to the painting studio, Robert was amazed to find that the time and distance actually sharpened his skills and improved his confidence.

Descend, Original Signed Contemporary Landscape Painting
Located in Boston, MA
Descend, Original Signed Contemporary Landscape Painting 30" x 20" x 2" (HxWxD) Acrylic on Canvas Hand-signed by the artist. Artist Robert Crooker captures the sublime in this almost otherworldly painting of a cavernous sinkhole. A small figure can be seen descending through the expansive depth of the natural formation, their silhouette juxtaposed against a misty white backdrop. The composition features a vignette of darkness, broken up by the beam of sunlight able to pour down through the open hole, illuminating mossy green rocks. Artist Commentary: This is a pretty massive sink hole which is massively impressive so I tried to recreate the photograph of it onto canvas. I'm pretty happy!

The Whisper of Ernestine is a part of the diptych 38x57 in (97x146 cm) of size. This painting is sold with Certificates of Authencity. The Duality of two contrast beginnings that exist inseparably, but nonetheless creating the One whole thing, man and the woman, ying and yang.

This colorful and black and white scene magically connects and divides parts of the Diptych, identifying the heroes of the Painting. Each painting, being fully finished, not only adding to the other one, but continuing it, demonstrating kinetic arts. This dialogue about love is making the spectators following the story and sincerely get emotional for Igor Fomin...
