About the Item
"Red Motorcycle and Ben Fenske" is an oil painting of the artist's friend, Ben Fenske (another successful artist) as he walks away from him. This painting was painted in 2014, one of the first paintings by Carl Bretzke to sell at the Grenning Gallery. We are pleased to exhibit this painting again, almost 10 years later.

Carl's work has been described in the Washington Post as "simultaneously intimate and detached…The artist's unadorned style recalls Edward Hopper and The Ashcan school."
