Welcome to the Robert Wassell Online Galleries!

Landscape Painter Robert Wassell says that Southern California's Los Padres National Forest and Channel Islands are two Jewels in the Crown of America. The Artist has spent the last 20 years hiking, drawing, and painting these jewels of our great country, in Ventura and Santa Barbara Counties in the state of California. This the Artist states is the essence of my work, humbly trying to capturing this pristine wilderness in his Landscape Paintings.

The Los Padres National Forest has majestic cliffs, breath taking water falls, deep swimming holes, narrow canyons, and spectacular vistas. The elevations go from sea level to the top of Mount Pinos at 8831 feet above sea level. By hiking the hundreds of miles of trails every week for 20 years he has gained an intimate knowledge of the Forest. He has been on most trails from Frazier Park in the north, to Gaviota on the west, and south to Point Mugu and Leo Carrillo State Parks.

The trick to viewing art on the web is to roll your chair back 5 or 6 feet, then the fuzziness you see up close disappears into a crisp picture. My work is usually on display
