Glades Clearing

Artist:  Robert Butler       More by this artist

Category:  Paintings - Highwaymen       More in this category

Medium:  Oil on Masonboard

Description:  
Rare work by Florida Highwaymen. Oval mason board. Serenity of a pristine Everglades clearing. Tiny brush strokes and signature etched into the paint lower left corner. It was destiny that would lead Butler to a life of success as a painter, enough success, in fact, that he was able to support his family of 9 children throughout his life on his painting alone. Born in Baxley, Ga. in 1943, Butler and his mother moved to Okeechobee, Fla. when he was four. As a young hunter, he came to know the Everglades well and learned to “’read’ the land,” as The Highwaymen Trail, a heritage trail organization run by the city of Fort Pierce and the Florida Humanities Council, puts it. This familiarity and skill later served him well as a painter of Florida’s interior landscapes. By the early 90s, Robert Butler was considered one of the best landscape painters in Florida and owned a thriving gallery in Lakeland from which he sold his work. Popular with a wide audience, his pieces were especially sought-after by hunters and outdoor aficionados and could command as much as $7,500 per piece. Robert Butler died in Lakeland on March 19, 2014. Inducted into the Florida Artists Hall of Fame in 2004 with his fellow Highwaymen painters, his work is still highly sought-after by collectors from around the world.
