Robert McIntosh
(1916-2010)

Robert McIntosh was borth on March 11, 1916 near San Francisco, in Vallejo, California, the second son of Harry and Jesusita
Coronado McIntosh. He found his lifelong passion for painting by the time he was ten years old and never swayed from his calling.

The family moved to Stockton when Robert was 12. Their home was just six blocks from the newly opened Haggin Museum, filled
with a treasure trove of European and American paintings. He became particularly enamored with the fine examples of 19th century French pastoral landscapes. As teens, Robert and his brother Harrison befriended local painter Arthur Haddock who taught them the
craft of art and brought them along on outdoor painting trips. Robert also became skilled at drawing portraits that captured the subject's personality. Soon, the sheer joy of expressing himself this way became a consuming interest.
