The Enchanted Pool by Robert Wesley Amick

"The Enchanted Pool", vintage print in original frame, 24x20.
Artwork by Robert Wesley Amick.
One fun part of running a consignment store is new introductions. I was not familiar with Robert Wesley Amick's work before this consignment came in. Amick was an American painter of the Old West.

The old frame hints at Arts and Crafts influence.
In this evocative piece, a man draws water from a quiet pool; what appears to be faster-flowing water in the lower corner hints at a larger setting by a rushing river.
