This is an exemplary painting that is typical of his craft, presenting a stormy sky with the crashing surf and rocky beaches of the West Coast of America. Having painted over 4,000 pieces in his lifetime, he was also known for his exceptional teaching method. The work overall is in good condition for its age.

He earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in education from the California College of Arts and Crafts in Oakland, California and his Master's degree from San Francisco State College in San Francisco, California. He taught in the public school system for 12 years before becoming a full-time artist. During his art career, he painted over 4,000 seascapes and had 30 one-man shows since he began painting. Many of his marine paintings now belong to private collections and galleries throughout the United States. He created the cover for four Readers Digest issues, including that of October 1976. He wrote instructional books and produced a series of bestselling videos. Robinson lived for 40 years in Mendocino, California, where he died at home, November 18, 2008." See less
