Beautiful oil of the Tripple Crown Race Winner Secretariat, dated 1992.

Heavy pencil on paper drawing, 6" by 15", unframed, signed at lower center and dated there '91, (see another very similar drawing I have listed), by the noted contemporary sculptor, ceramicist, designer and painter PETER SHIRE (1947-). This complex modern drawing is imaginative, three dimensional, and whimsical, and could only have been created by a true artist...

Max Kassler, American 1905–1992 was an abstract Artist known for some of the most unusual experimental work based on the human figure He was an early student of the Picasso school of painting. This work culminated his idea of abstraction in space. This work is pastel on artist board… Max Kassler, American 1905–1992 was an abstract Artist known for some of the most unusual experimental work based on the human figure He was an early student of the Picasso school of painting...

Watercolor on paper painting of a street scene in a French city, probably Paris, 18" by 10 1/2" inside the mat (29" by 21" as framed), signed at lower left "Jack Hines" followed by "NWR" (for "Northwest Rendezvous, and art group) and the date 1984 preceded by the copyright symbol. This is somewhat atypical subject matter for this well known artist of the American West. Hines is listed in the authoritative 1982 landmark book "Contemporary Western Artists" by Peggy and Harold Samuels...

Large watercolor painting, 21 1/2" by 29", 34 1/2" by 42" as presently framed, the subject traditional old bells hanging in a California mission tower, the blue sky visible through the opening, two white doves conveniently flying through the image, signed at lower right somewhat indecipherably and dated there 1989. The luminous work might have been painted as a prop for a movie or tv show, as markings/label on the reverse indicate. Condition is excellent...

A contemporary watercolor painting of banana tree or giant bird of paradise, in harmonious green, yellow, violet and brown-red colors, 22" by 19" (29 3/4" by 25 3/4" in blond wood frame), signed at lower right corner by artist Elizabeth Schleich, or Schleichner or similar, followed by "PTL" (meaning unknown). The work is in excellent condition, the colors rich. The artist displays a keen sense of color and some passages in the composition appear almost cubistic...

This is a poetic Asian work, in grayish blues and white, the subject the cone of Mt. Fuji above a cloud deck. The painting measures 14 1/4" by 17" inside the overmat (21 1/2" by 24" as simply framed). The signature at lower left reads Kamemaru and the seal "Kame". I cannot see that this corresponds to a listed artist. The work is in the style of classic Japanese watercolor landscape painting, and is perhaps also inspired by the works of the modern master Yokoyama Taikan...

Large and complex abstract drawing, possibly in oil stick or oil pastel, 27 1/2" by 18 1/2" (37" by 24 1/2" as framed), signed at lower right "Zohar" and dated there "12/89". This is a fairly common Israeli name and there are listed artists by this name but the style and signature do not seem to match up with them, so I am offering this as a great abstract that is sure to please from the decorative standpoint...

Large format Japanese limited edition woodblock print depicting a path through traditional buildings titled in kanji at the lower left "Kashiwabara" (station 60) from the series "Kisokaido" by Katsuyuki Nishijima (b. 1945). Pencil-signed and with the artist's red seal at the lower right margin. Numbered 1/500 at the lower right margin corner. "Kisokaido" is printed in kanji at the center of the bottom margin. Paper size 14 3/4" x 20 3/4" (image: 12 3/8" x 18 3/8")...

A beautiful fresh example of a 1969 poster featuring the work of famed Mexican artist RUFINO TAMAYO (1899-1991), **HAND SIGNED** by the artist in ballpoint pen at lower left just above the white "Tamayo". The poster commemorates one of many exhibitions of the artist's work at the well-known Bernard Lewin Galleries in Palm Springs and Beverly Hills, California. Tamayo and Lewin had a longtime business relationship, Lewin promoting Tamayo tirelessly...

Haku Maki did many prints some with interesting backgrounds some not. This modest run of rather large pints had a special black background: it is the texture of old leather. . Maki created and used this technique only in 1981 prints and mainly in persimmons. The persimmons are plump and meaty the green leaves of the fruit are nicely proportioned. Maki did only a few twin persimmon prints and none after 1980 except this one. 81-10 is in frame 2...

(Consignment). The following biography, submitted March 2005, is from the daughter of the artist. Although raised and educated in Texas, Joe Dawley moved to New Jersey in the early 1960's where he remained. He painted in the traditional Old Masters style until 1982, when the symptoms of Parkinson's - diagnosed in 1975 - necessitated brain surgery. One of his accolades during that period was being commissioned to paint the official portrait of Mother Seton for the canonization in 1976. Af...

Max Kassler, American 1905–1992 was an abstract Artist known for some of the most unusual experimental work based on the human figure He was an early student of the Picasso school of painting. This work culminated his idea of abstraction in space. This is part of the collection we have at the gallery. Automatic drawing was pioneered by the English artist Austin Osman Spare who wrote a chapter, Automatic Drawing as a Means to Art, in his book, The Book of Pleasure (1913). Other artists who also...

PAIR of original mixed media drawings, similarly sized though not identical, one 14" by 18 3/4", the other 15" by 18 1/2", and roughly 22" by 25" as framed, one featuring the 1982 trial of notorious Atlanta child murderer Wayne Williams, the other the 1984 trial of automaker John DeLorean, each signed by the artist, DAVID ROSE (1910-2006). Rose between the early 1970's and mid 1990's became one of the century's best known courtroom artists, his skills sought after by national tv networks. Born...

A beautifully executed painting on canvas of New Mexico Native American pottery pieces, (perhaps from the Zia Pueblo?), signed at lower left by artist "Angelika". The work, 20" by 24" (24 1/2" by 28 1/2" framed) is painted in a realistic style, so that the pots seem to be three dimensional. This is a highly decorative piece and will complement your Southwest interior. The frame is not especially complementary; a more appropriate one will enhance the presentation.

Oil on canvas still life painting, including a red teapot, plates, funnel, cup, and fruit, all on a striped table cloth with further drapery in the background, 20" by 24", unsigned on front and bearing the name "H. HOWARD" and date "OCT. 74" on the stretcher. There is an African-American artist by the name Humbert Howard but this work does not resemble the work I see out there on the net. The artist, whoever he or she was, obviously was trained and understood perspective, composition, color, a...

An interesting Southwestern painting of a sunny courtyard in a Spanish-style building (church or mission) of the American Southwest---likely California, or Mexico---glimpsed through a grand old doorway, signed at lower right by artist Laurence McLaughlin. The 18" by 24" painting (26" by 31 1/2" framed) is not old (maybe 1970's or 1980's) but the traditional subject and technique could make it pass for an older work. Surprisingly I have not been able to locate a listed artist by this name. The...
