Tim Hooper
Red Star

About the Item

Red Star displays a black crow surrounded by yellow and white stars. The bold red hue of the background evokes excitement and energy as the number 83 subtly hangs in the top left corner of the piece. Tim Hooper employs smooth brushstrokes and very little physical texture creating narrative pieces inspired by the extraordinarily ordinary, juxtaposing the rough with the refined. In his paintings, he imagines a world where clumsy robots live among dysfunctional crows and alcoholic bunnies. In this fictionalized reality, these oddball characters serve as stand-ins for actual humans. This is all done to say something about the human condition while poking fun at the real world.

Hunting Ghosts On A Lion
By Mike Egan
Located in Nashville, TN
Mike Egan’s Hunting Ghosts on a Lion is a bold, folk-art-inspired acrylic painting on wood that combines themes of mortality, protection, and the supernatural. A skeletal figure, rendered in Egan’s signature black-and-white style, rides atop a regal golden lion, exuding an air of both power and mystery. The lion’s face, adorned with intricate patterns and deep red eyes, evokes a spiritual guardian guiding the skeleton on its ghostly hunt. The crimson red background, dotted with floating skulls and delicate floral motifs, reinforces the painting’s balance between life and death. Above the rider, pale blue ghostly forms float across the scene, emphasizing the painting’s supernatural...
