An athlete who paints, Wayland Moore has achieved preeminence in the sports world through a multi-faceted background. A football player who turned down athletic scholarships to attend the Ringling School of Art. A Pulitzer prize nominee for editorial cartooning who became Graphics Director for a major league baseball team. But, most important, an artist with the ability to capture a moment without freezing it - the ability that only comes from having ""been there"" as an athlete. A Printer’s Proof (PP) is similar to an artist’s proof. They were originally designed to monitor the progress of printing. They are a print or object that the manufacturer or printer receives as proof of their work. These copies are made in addition to the actual edition and are not intended for sale or included in the count of the edition. They remain in the archive of the printing house and can be submitted to other potential clients and artists as a work sample. However, it is customary for the manufacturer to release their PPs for sale in the event of a complete sale of the print run or on special request. Instead of stating the number of the sheet within the edition, the printer’s proofs contain the note PP and possibly a numbering with Roman or Arabic numerals. The number of PPs in addition to the regular edition is up to the artist. Usually there are one or two PPs. In any case, the number is determined from the outset and cannot be supplemented afterwards. Province Estate of J. Frederic Gagel, owner of multiple Thoroughbred race horses that competed in the Narragansett Special and Kentucky Derby.

  • Mark King "Leopard" Expressionist Pencil Signed Limited Edition Serigraph Framed
    By Mark King 1
    Located in Dayton, OH
    Leopard by Mark King. Expressionist serigraph on paper, signed lower right. Limited edition. Mark King, British (1931) Mark King was born in Bombay, India to British parents in 1931. King’s childhood was one of exotic experience and privileged education. After graduating from La Martiniére College in Calcutta, the sixteen-year-old King sailed to England to attend Bournemouth College of Art. There he studied painting, sculpture, architecture and theatre design. Subsequently, he spent seven years as the resident scenic designer at the Oxford Playhouse Theatre. In 1961, he decided to concentrate on painting, and he moved to Paris, where he studied at the École des Beaux-Arts and the Louvre. It was there that he developed his impressionistic style, influenced by the wealth of examples of European masters. Mark King describes his approach to painting as ninety percent preparation. “It takes a great deal of time for me but once I begin, I work with great impetus, with immense bursts of energy. It is not until the last ten or fifteen minutes before completion that I am able to see where the painting is going and to catch the mood of the moment.” Change has played an important role in both King’s art and life. “I have a need, artistically, for exposure to new ideas and images,” he says, and it was this need that brought him to America in 1968, a move that prompted a shift in his working methods. A landscape painter in France, King began to expand his subject matter to include sports. With his work as a sports artist King found the camera an indispensable tool, and began to work from photographs. Since coming to America...
