"Endangered The Kangaroo" Silkscreen Poster by Felice Regan

About the Item

If you want to educate and motivate your child about protecting the endangered species, this is the piece of Art you have to hang in his room after a explanation about the subject. He will remember that all his life! The bold colors, the hand-painted matching frame and the kangaroo with his babies will talk to your children imagination! Felice Regan is a graphic artist from Boston Massachusetts. She is a graduate of the Massachusetts College of Art, earning a BFA. After graduating, she founded the Graphic Workshop, an artist’s collaborative. This collaborative grew out of a group of artists and designers who initially formed the Student Strike Workshop and were renowned for their protest posters on various issues in the early 1970s. In 1975, the World Society for the Protection of Animals employed the Graphic Workshop to create posters for their organization. The group created 25 limited edition silkscreen posters for their “Endangered Species’ series. The project, unfortunately, fell through, but Regan continued to finish the series. One such poster was Regan’s “Endangered The Kangaroo.” This poster series has become a trademark of the workshop and brings the public’s attention to the threat of the declining population of wild animals. There is so much to admire with this piece. I enjoy Regan's use of bold colors, complimented with the hand painted frame done by the artist. It really ties it all together.

  • The Woman and the Peacock Lithograph by Mr. Blackwell 114/250
    Located in Pasadena, CA
    Utilizing the peacock as an emblematic Art Nouveau animal, a favorite of early 20th-century illustrators and designers, Mr. Blackwell, who was born in 1925, delivers a powerfully aesthetic scene between a woman and a peacock in this lithograph, paying homage to both Art Nouveau and Art Deco. He was among others an American fashion critic, television/radio personality, and fashion designer. We can imagine that this drawing was a study for a dress paying homage to the myth and quintessence of the beauty found within peacock feathers. Like any artist, there is a story, structure, composition, and arrangement of the woman and the peacock, creating an iridescent visual of blue, green, and yellow, a dialogue between forms, curves, and lines. It is said that the Eye on the bird’s feathers reminds us that God is always watching. The off-white background is sober, crossed by two simple circular colored shapes, in the lower part. The two subjects initially appear as one entity, but as we move into the scene, we see that the woman is holding the peacock under her arm as one might hold an accessory. Then very quickly, it appears as the main figure, taking over the entire narrative rather than an accessory or a secondary figure. The peacock's regal posture, with its unfurled feathers, contrasts with the woman's near imbalance, almost as if she was fainting. It could also be interpreted as an intimate and seductive dance, where the two subjects come together as one to pay homage to a poetic and metaphorical world where aesthetics, fashion, and onirism converge. Did you know that peacocks use...
