Description: ARTIST SIGNED: ROY KERSWILL 1925-2002 Roy Kerswill born in Devon, England came to the United States via Canada when he sailed a cedar canoe in river waters from Canada to New Orleans, on a yearlong trip. This made him aware of pioneer experiences and heritage, the subject of most of his paintings. He has written a book titled "A Pictorial Story of the Oregon-California Trail," the result of six years of research and painting along the Oregon Trail. Roy has worked in both oil and watercolor and his subjects include western historical scenes and landscapes of the rugged and picturesque Teton Mountain Range in Wyoming. Roy was a precociously gifted young boy and he received a scholarship to the Bristol College of Art when only eleven years of age. Presidents’ Dwight D. Eisenhower, Ronald Reagan and George H. W. Bush, as well as Senator Barry Goldwater, Laurence Rockefeller and actors Burt Reynolds and Dick Van Dyke collected Kerswill’s paintings. Kerswill once described why he was an artist. "I paint with the same need as I eat. I paint because it is an adventure into something strange and beautiful. I paint because it is pleasurable; like smelling the rain, touching a child, loving a woman, singing to the wind or listening to the hushed roar of the wind in the forest. As I strive to reach and understand this thing, I become attuned or embed with something very beautiful, and it is this exciting sensation which drives me on." THE PAINTING IS APPROX. 11.75 INCHES HIGH X 18.75 INCHES WIDE. THE FRAME IS APPROX. 19 INCHES HIGH X 25 INCHES WIDE. THE FRAME IS APPROX. 1 INCH DEEP.
