John McCabe
What About?, Original Painting

2018

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist John McCabe illustrates colorful graphic faces divided into twelve micro panels. He creates a scenario of an explosive political landscape within a board of people. "The common line of rebuttal in the information cycle discourse was—what about," says John. The subjects, with no answer or proper defense of an argument, evade by counterpointing with—What about?

  • Flaunting Heirlooms, Oil Painting
    By Malia Pettit
    Located in San Francisco, CA

    Artist Comments
    A woman wearing a floral brooch on her shoulder and a scarf covering her hair captivates with a riveting gaze. The pale blue and warm gray background, along with her peach flesh tones, give the portrait a vintage touch. The artwork comes with a Larson-Juhl matte natural wood frame measuring 1.25 inches deep and 0.65 of an inch thick.


    About the Artist
    Malia Pettit sees her artistic process as an act of “liberating the paint” and “allowing for the unexpected to occur.” Her portraits of women stem from a fascination with glossy magazines and their portrayal of models, actors and celebrities. Her work has been especially influenced by Chantal Joffe...

The plastic, the decorative, the horrible and the serene that pepper the visual landscape of the present time challenges the artists who address the age of information. I consider myself a global artist, not an American artist. This galactical view is the true basis of my work–Nature is my teacher–the Master. I’m the apprentice.” –Dick Crispo Dick Crispo, born in New York City on January 13, 1945, has resided on the Monterey Peninsula since 1955.
