About the Item
Artist Comments
"I've always been fascinated by maps and globes," artist Jennifer Ross shares about her Map series. "This piece is meant to be interactive using the red map pins to designate where you are or where you want to go." She collaged paper maps into the inside of a bird's nest. A box of red map pins will accompany the painting, so the owner can customize the piece.
About the Artist
Jennifer Ross grew up surrounded by the art of her mother and grandfather. Her attempt to follow in their footsteps presented detours, however, and she ended up working in art galleries selling other's work. But her desire to paint continued to grow throughout the years. In 2008, a gift certificate to a local art store turned into an epiphany when she decided to try painting. Jennifer found inspiration in a collection of antique prints of birds' nests and eggs by the English artist, F.O. Morris, and began to create an avian series. These paintings serve as symbolic family portraits of what we all hold dear - our home and loved ones. Today, she is often commissioned to paint various colored eggs representing patrons' family members.

- Death Head, Original PaintingBy Drew McSherryLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
Artist Drew McSherry pictures an enigmatic profile of a face. It appears to be a creature with its mouth agape. His process begins with loose sketching and blotting to achieve a smudged effect. Drew layers pastel over the work to enrich the darker colors.About the Artist
Drew McSherry finds inspiration in the paranormal and the darker parts of life. His images contain a sense of the macabre and oftentimes feel fantastical. He currently lives in California and has been influenced by artists like Eug;ne Carri;re and Odilon Redon. Fun fact: when he;s not painting, he is working on a series of children;s books.Words that describe this painting: death, scary, pastel, charcoal, paper, horror, skull, monster, portrait, profile, mixed media, vertical, surrealism, people, small, drawing, people, surrealism, mixed media artwork, brown
