Charles Damrow Art

Native American, 1916-1989

Charles Damrow, cowboy artist and painter of western cowboy and Native American subject matter, established friendships with Native Americans, cowboy artists and Native American traders of the Southwest. Damrow, born in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, in 1916, left home to venture west at the young age of 13. He was largely self-taught and enjoyed painting nostalgic scenes of the frontier. Damrow, who drifted between acclaim and obscurity, had associations and friendships with many notable Westerners, including Olaf Wieghorst, Barry Goldwater, Peter McDonald and Bill McGee. His paintings are highly collectible, held in private collections, municipal buildings, and corporate collections. Damrow has been noted in the Illustrated Biographical Directory, American Artists at Auction 1645–1945, Artists Blue Book and countless other magazines, newspaper articles and art publications. Damrow's artistic skills remained strong throughout his early career, culminating in a horse accident in 1968, confining his best work to the earlier period. His deep friendships with Native Americans and cowboys of the Southwest ended with his death in 1989, but his works will continue to surface among Native American art patrons and art galleries nationwide.

"Dancer's Dream" Large Original Oil Painting by Robert White, Frameless Display

Located in Encino, CA

“Dancer's Dream,” an original oil on canvas by Robert K. White, is a piece for the true collector. White’s careful attention to detail and vivid use of greens, browns, and whites project from the painting, immediately capturing the viewer's attention and highlighting the artist's keen ability to capture emotion and life - all in a brushstroke. White's talent for depicting light and shadow provides the foundation for him to deliver subjects and scenes to the viewer's eye. This masterful work would make a great addition to an art collection and enhance most any home, perfect for those who have an affinity for dancers, the ballet, portraits, and color-rich works of art. In the artist’s own words, “I don’t paint what is inside of me; I paint what I see outside of me. I’m an observer. If I see something and I feel an affinity for it, something just clicks in my head. I’ll make the decision right then and there to paint that particular subject during that particular moment. It’s a perfect moment. Once something has caught my eye and I’ve heard the “perfect” click, it’s like a photograph has been taken in my mind’s eye. I only have a few days of clarity with that image. I have to start the painting quickly or else it will be gone and I will lose that image forever.” Artist: ROBERT KENNETH WHITE...
