Gary Ruddell
Gary Ruddell (b. 1951, San Mateo, CA) received his BFA from the California College of Arts and Crafts in 1975 and began his art career by illustrating a series of notable science fiction and fantasy book covers. In the early 1990s, Ruddell turned his focus to figurative paintings and started exhibiting at galleries, museums, and universities. Regarding the inspiration for his work, the artist says: "The vehicle, which drives my images, has always been my relationship with my family. It is an essential part of my development and process. Mundane and routine scenes, like children calling out for one another or the interventions of mother and son are what spark my own imagination from childhood."
Ruddell has exhibited in solo and group exhibitions across the United States, and his paintings have been acquired by significant corporate and private collectors around the globe. He continues to live and work in the San Francisco Bay Area.

- "Pink Sprinkle Donut" Oil PaintingBy Jason WalkerLocated in Denver, COJason Walker's (CAN based) "Pink Sprinkle Donut" is an original, handmade oil painting that depicts a donut glazed with pink frosting and sprinkles set against a black background. About the Artist: Jason Walker’s imagery reflects popular culture: from Disney’s Mary Poppins or Mickey Mouse to frosted doughnuts. As observer and conveyor of cultural icons, he is an anthropologist and his beautiful and often endearing paintings resonates with art viewers. But this Toronto artist is also an analyst. Conceived with the clear-eyed vision of a native of Nairn, Scotland, Walker’s compositions challenge viewers to consider contemporary culture. Through his iconography, Walker creates artifacts, a paint-on-canvas time capsule for future generations. His images are representational rather than abstract. His subjects from Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz to Peter Pan’s Tinker Bell are non-elitist, international, and easily identified. A portrait of our time, Walker’s renditions are intimate and lifelike, crafted with diffused edges or Old-Master chiaroscuro. Painted in Renaissance jewel...Category
