Looney Tunes shorts under Friz Freleng, and later for Disney and Chuck Jones's studio. Wyner worked on Looney Tunes backgrounds through the 1950s before moving into Disney projects in the early 1960s and later contributing to animated specials like The Phantom Tollbooth and Horton Hears a Who! That animation background shows clearly here in the flattened, stylized forms and confident color blocking — a red barn and matching silo, a tidy farmhouse, and a mirror-still pond, all set against rolling green hills rendered with the same graphic economy as a film background painting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis piece is said to be among Wyner's last works, and on close inspection a few areas remain lightly unfinished — visible mostly in some of the smaller background details — which only adds to its interest as a rare, personal, non-production piece by an artist whose day-to-day work rarely survives outside of animation cels and backgrounds. The palette is bright and sunny throughout, with the deep blue pond and orange barn giving the composition real punch.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis painting comes from the artist's official estate.
