“The Lone Beech” is one of Robert Wood’s best-known images. In the 1950s, the Donald Art Company of New York reproduced “The Lone Beech” as a popular lithograph, distributing it nationally and internationally. This work dates back to the early 1950s, when Robert Wood spent a period in the art colony of Woodstock, New York. It was the paintings that he did in Woodstock that made Wood the most famous painter of the American landscape. |

This Robert Wood was painted near the little town of Helotes Creek, Texas, near the famous scenic loop, northwest of San Antonio. Wood painted “Helotes Creek” (1960) on an autumn trip when he returned to Texas to visit his daughter Florence. It depicts the well-known Red or “Spanish” Oak tree in its dramatic fall color against the panorama of the central Texas landscape. Helotes Creek is a well-worn little town with roots that reach far back into Texas history. The local landscape that Wood portrayed so beautifully consists of the Red Oaks which are able to weather the dry climate, native grasses, cactus and acres of mesquite. |
