Charles Warren Mundy
Charles Warren Mundy worked for 22 years as a sports illustrator, and in the late 1980s, became a full-time painter of landscapes, still life and figurative works. Among the artists, he credits as inspiring to him are John Singer Sargent, Edgar Payne and Guy Rose. He grew up and continues to live in Indianapolis, Indiana, where he was raised as a member of the Evangelical United Brethren Church and won a college basketball scholarship, eventually graduating from Ball State University in Muncie. Full of energy, Mundy developed a plan that combined his interest in art with sports and created photo-realistic depictions of sports figures. In the early 1980s, he became the official illustrator for Bob Knight, legendary basketball coach at Indiana University, and he also had contracts for illustration with the Pro Golfers Association, the United States Golf Association, and the National Basketball Association. From those years, his artwork is in many collections, including the Indianapolis 500 Museum. However, he tired of this activity, finding it to be formula painting and less-than-challenging because it lacked spirit. So in 1994, Mundy enrolled in workshops taught by established artists such as Scott Christensen and Dan Gerhartz, and their encouragement and examples freed his creativity, especially for plein air painting. After several of these workshops, he and his wife Rebecca went to France, and since then, they have traveled extensively, including to East Coast locations such as Gloucester and Rockport as well as back to Europe.
In 1998, the couple went to the Rocky Mountains to "recharge his battery" and get distant, panoramic views. Many of Mundy's previous works had been small — six to eight inches — but here he did larger canvases, some of them with dimensions of four feet or bigger. In 2003, CW Mundy earned the status of Master Signature Member from the Oil Painters of America. In 2005, Mundy earned the Award of Excellence for Master Signature Members at the 14th Annual Oil Painters of America National Show.

- "The Return" Portrait of Ayatollah Khomeini 1979By Dick CrispoLocated in Soquel, CAEvocative pop art/fauvist treatment of the return of Ayatollah Khomeini to Iran by Monterey, California aritst Dick Crispo (American, b.1945). Presented in a mat. Signed and dated "D. Crispo 79" upper left corner. Image size, 29"H x 23"W. “I am an abstract journalist of the landscape and a choreographer of the dance of the mind, eye and hand. The plastic, the decorative, the horrible and the serene that pepper the visual landscape of the present time challenges the artists who address the age of information. I consider myself a global artist, not an American artist. This galactical view is the true basis of my work–Nature is my teacher–the Master. I’m the apprentice.” –Dick Crispo Dick Crispo, born in New York City on January 13, 1945, has resided on the Monterey Peninsula since 1955. An award winning artist, Crispo has studied at the Carmel Art Institute under John Cunningham and Sam Colburn...Category

In this piece, she presents a character with a certain sexual ambiguity, lost in thought, snuggled up with a small creature, a little monster, and sporting tattoos on the fingers that read 'Love' and 'Wild,' a nod to Charles Laughton's famous film 'The Night of the Hunter...Category
