About the Item

SALE ONE WEEK ONLY “Annie Hall” is a brilliant complicated mixed media piece composed of disparate parts and pieces that together make up a successful whole similar to the Woody Allen film of the same title. The movie was created during the late 70s a time when personality confusion, emotional anxiety and psychic analysis were popular issues to suffer under and popular topics of discussion. With Annie Hall, Allen, with comedic intent, moved toward the more serious comedy. It had a realistic plot and characters, and it addressed deeper themes than the silly films of his early career. Ron Lucas very adroitly manages the comedic with the more serious in this painting. He is a visual development artist and art director for animation with a long history with companies including DreamWorks Animation and Sony Pictures Animation. Ron is a practicing artist, illustrator, photographer, art consultant and art teacher, residing in Southern California. A native of Chicago, he is a graduate of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and the University of Chicago, with a degree, BAE and two years Masters study, MAE in the fields of Art Education, Painting, Drawing, Illustration and Psychology. Lukas is the recipient of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, George E. Brown Fine Art Foreign Travel Fellowship, plus 6 years full-time college art scholarships, and numerous other fine art and commercial art awards and achievements. His animations are in the style of Marvel Comics and his paintings are Expressionistic abstract.

Fred Cress Figurative Painting "Mirror, Mirror"
Located in Detroit, MI
SALE ONE WEEK ONLY Complicated exchanges between individuals engaged in conversations, an argument, boredom, a caring exchange, toasting, so many human interactions within an almost five and a half foot square painting containing up to 25 people has been magnificently composed and is continuously captivating. The dynamism and flow of humanity in “Mirror, Mirror” can be compared to the dynamism and flow of humanity found in Breughel’s “Wedding Dance” owned by and located at the Detroit Institute of Arts. Frederick Harold Cress was a British painter who migrated to Australia and won the Archibald Prize in 1988 with a portrait of John Bread. Cress was born in Poona, British Raj, but went to England with his parents in 1948, when he was ten. He was educated at the Birmingham College of Art in England, and migrated to Australia in 1962 as a "ten pound Pom", meaning that he only had to pay ten pound for his fare to Australia. Cress met the painter Anne Judell and married her in 1967; they divorced in 1991. He started his career painting figuratively, but became well known for his abstract work in the late 60s and 70s.

Charles Pompilius figurative Young Female Nude Oil on Panel
Located in Detroit, MI
"Untitled" portrays a young female nude in an intimate setting within the artist's studio. This painting is done in the classical vein of full portraiture. The model, however, is not posed quietly, but is engaged with a person or object off the frame, or, perhaps in an interior monologue with herself. Regardless of which, the viewer's attention is not only attracted to the beauty of the model's figure, but the intention of her actions. Charles Pompilius...
