This is one of the best Christmas paintings that Carl Barks ever made (in my opinion)! It comes from the story "Christmas for a Shacktown". Consider painting so amazing! Ah... What a dream!

This painting is taken from my favorite story. The name reads as follows: Donald Duck and the golden helmet. This story is the best Carl Barks story (according to this website). It would not surprise me if this painting was soon the best!

“Yesterday’s Mansion,” an original oil painting by Carl Barks, 1969. According to Barks, this painting is “a mostly imaginary scene first conceived in the sixties for showing at outdoor art shows in Palm Springs, where only desert scenes sell. Over the years I have often rewetted and tinkered with the original composition, added branches to the tree, painted in and painted out hedgerows of cypress, even added an ocean in the distance. All that work to give myself short rests from the grind of drawing and painting the Disney ducks.”

Painting called ''Duck Rogers'' (1979). This painting, which had as a working title "This Nude Duck is a Dish", is featured on pages 121-122 of the Carl Barks' Animal Quackers full-color book. "Duck Rogers" is a take-off on America's first popular newspaper comic strip spaceman, Buck Rogers. Barks was late to discover that a Warner Brothers cartoon had previously been issued under a similar name ("Duck Dodgers in the 24 1/2 Century", in 1953), and was concerned with copyright issues. For that reason, he would not sign his name to the painting; however, he was agreeable to sign the accompanying finished pencil drawing. "Duck Rogers" is the only futuristic character in Barks' series of 53 non-Disney Duck paintings. Buck is shown in the process of saving a curvaceous "dinner-to-be" -- a stripped-down maiden in distress. Barks has the three-headed "dragon-style" alien chef preparing dessert and the main course all at the same time. The "dessert" has a humorous perkiness that only Carl Barks could create.

"The Mountain Man" Painting Original Art (1979). Worlds are colliding here! This handsome (and funny) painting of a couple of bear trappers who catch more than expected was done during the period when Disney revoked the license Barks had obtained to paint Donald Duck and Uncle Scrooge, and was accepting commissions for a series he called "Famous Figures of History as They Might Have Looked Had Their Genes Gotten Mixed with Waterfowl." It was commissioned by animation writer and Underground cartoonist Bob Foster, who had requested his own creation, Myron Moose, be included in the scene; that's Myron in the background, pointing to a bear cub he has trapped! The art is in ink and watercolor on illustration board.

Barks famous oil painting entitled "Wanderers of Wonderlands" executed in 1981. The father of ducks created this painting, taking inspiration from one of his adventures published in 1954 with the title "Uncle Scrooge and the seven cities of Cibola" in which Uncle Scrooge and his nephews go in search of the 7 legendary cities of gold founded in New Mexico following the Arab conquest of the Spanish city of Merida. We know that Barks was particularly fond of this story as it was the first occasion in which Uncle Scrooge goes in search of hidden and legendary treasures around the world, a theme that will later become recurring (as well as one of the most fascinating) in the character ’s adventures.
