About the Item
Artist Comments
In 2010, I went to Nevada to interview a CIA hypersonic flight specialist for a Huffington Post story about UFOs at Area 5. I got to visit a couple of neighboring air force bases, Nellis and Creech, but wasn't allowed onto Area 51 (no one is, unless they're working there). I did, however, go to a nearby McDonald's;
About the Artist
Alabama-based artist Keith Thomson creates quick-witted, mixed-media artwork that blends realism and surrealism. His background as a political cartoonist in the 90’s is reflected in the sharp storytelling his artwork achieves. He combines stylized realism and everyday subject matter with surreal details and ironic twists. He begins his work as digital sketches using an animation software, then he transfers the sketch onto the canvas and begins applying oil paint. In addition to painting, he is a writer, of mostly spy novels and nonfiction articles. His writing prowess shines through in his witty descriptions of his pieces.

- Kintsugi Horse-The Beautiful Changes, Original PaintingBy Jennifer RossLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
Artist Jennifer Ross depicts a white horse with a stunning display of autumn colors in the background. She references the piece after a poem by Richard Wilber about wading through a fall meadow. Jennifer composes the equine portrait using her Kintsugi eggshell technique, a Japanese art form of repairing broken objects with gold lacquer. The white shell fragments form a striking image of the majestic creature, highlighted with a few touches of metallic gold to catch the light.About the Artist
