Robert Harrison Art

b. 1949

Robert Harrison was born in San Antonio, Texas, and spent many summers as a child in Wimberley, Texas, with his grandmother, Myrtle Lowery Harrison, who introduced Robert to painting and encouraged his interest in it. Over his career which spans nearly half a century, Harrison's work has sold in fine art galleries in San Antonio, Houston, Dallas and as far away as Carmel, California. Robert's love of the Texas Hill Country is evident in his paintings and he is considered by many art authorities to be the best living landscape artist in Texas. Cecelia Steinfeldt, curator emeritus of the Witte Museum, listed him as one of the top ten bluebonnet painters of all time in an article in Southwest Art Magazine, April 1985. His number one fan was Dolph Briscoe. Governor Briscoe purchased many of his works for gifts, his enjoyment, as well as investments. Harrison is best known for his bluebonnet scenes, but he masterfully captures the beauty of Texas' rivers, Spanish missions and ranching heritage. His work has been featured in San Antonio Magazine, Southwest Art Magazine and Art International. Robert's work is sought-after by private collectors and corporate collections in the United States and internationally.

"Being There" Original Oil Painting by Robert White, Frameless Display

Located in Encino, CA

“Being There,” 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 browns and reds 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 cityscapes, theater, and architecture. 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...

VAN BIESBROECK Jules. Woman in a garden. Oil sketch on cardboard.

By Jules Pierre van Biesbroeck

Located in Paris, FR

Woman in a garden. Oil sketch on cardboard. Unsigned. This work will be recorded in the catalogue raisonné of the work of the artist currently in preparation. Jules Van Biesbroeck was the son of Jules Evariste van Biesbroeck, a painter of Ghent, but was born in Italy, in Portici, near Naples, while his parents were staying there. (In the 19th century many artists made educational trips to Italy). It was a long visit: the child was two years old by the time the family returned to Ghent.[1] After a short period of practice with his father, van Biesbroeck was enrolled in the Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent. His first painting, "The Shepherd" (French: Le pâtre), was sold at the Triennale in Ghent. In 1888, when he was only 15 years old, he made his debut at the "Salon des Champs-Elysées" in Paris with his monumental work "The Launch of the Argo" (French: Le lancement...
