About the Item
Artist Comments
In this impressionist road scene by artist Keith Thomson, a group of bikers rides down the hot road beneath a blazing sun. They are seen on the hilly wooded stretch of Route 92 between the pert—Silicon Valley suburbs and the sumptuous beach town of Half Moon Bay in California. "It's like a wormhole in time to a ’70s biker movie," says Keith.
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 Buckskin and the Butterfly, Original PaintingBy Jennifer RossLocated in San Francisco, CA
Artist Comments
A beautiful butterfly alights on a buckskin horse in artist Jennifer Ross' impressionist work. "This piece is about metamorphosis," says Jennifer. She composes the equine portrait using her eggshell technique, inspired by Kintsugi - a Japanese art form of repairing broken objects with gold lacquer. She collages brown shell fragments overlaid with paint and paper, then highlights them with subtle touches of metallic pigment to catch the light.About the Artist
Artist Jennifer Ross creates intimate portraits of birds, nests and horses. Jennifer grew up surrounded by the art of her mother and grandfather.
