Bennett Schroeder Bradbury Sold at Auction Prices

Painter, b. 1914 - d. 1991

(b 1914; d 1991)
Bradbury was born into a musical family in Wrentham, MA on Feb. 23, 1914. Bradbury’s mother, Elfrida Schroeder, was a grand opera star in the Boston Opera Company, and his grandfather, Alwin Schroeder, received acclaim as the greatest cellist of his time.

As a mature artist, Bennett became a distinguished member of the Laguna Beach artist community. Bradbury worked for the Walt Disney studios for a time, as many artists in California were so employed as colorists and draftsmen.

Bradbury left Disney, however, to dedicate his career full-time to landscape (or seascape) painting. Bradbury was especially well known for dramatic pacific beach scenes showing turbulent waves dashing against rocks, in much the same manner as the oil paintings of Frederick J. Waugh.

For a time Bradbury left Laguna Beach to spend eight years in Honolulu, where he maintained a studio at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel. Upon his return to California, Bradbury continued to paint California coastal views in and around Laguna Beach. He taught painting on the Monterey Peninsula, and in 1970 moved to Carmel, where he lived until his death in 1991.

        Bennett Schroeder Bradbury (1914 - 1991) "California Coast" Oil on Canvas. Born in Wrentham, MA on February 23, 1914, Bennett Bradbury studied briefly at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts in 1929, and in 1931 joined the U.S. Navy. After the Navy he established a studio in Laguna Beach and became active with the local art colony. For a brief period he worked at Disney Studios before opting to devote full time to fine art. Bradbury is considered a leading artist of his time and is reinforced by Mr. Erwin Barrie, manager of Grand Central Galleries, for over a half a century. He said that Bradbury is "the greatest living painter of the seas. . . . No one since Winslow Homer and Fredrick J. Waugh has been able to portray on canvas the majesty and power and dignity of the ocean as does Bennett Bradbury, and I consider him to be one of the greatest marine painters."

He joined Walt Disney Studios and became assistant director after his Navy duty and later decided to devote himself entirely to painting, which of course, was the sea.During the following years, Bradbury achieved much attention for his art career, one that spanned 50 years.Bennett Bradbury died in his beloved Carmel, California at age of 77.
