Gunnar Donald Anderson, age 95 of Sonoma CA passed away on April 26, 2022. Gunnar was born to Sven Gunnar Anderson and Margaret Hultien Anderson on March 3, 1927 in Berkeley, California. He served his country as a member of the United States Coast Guard from 1945 to 1946.
After two years of study at the California School of Fine Arts in San Francisco, he attended Los Angeles Art Center School and in 1951 earned his Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree. From 1951 to 1953, he worked as an art director for the advertising agency McCann Erickson in New York City, joining Cunningham and Walsh in 1953, moving to Batten, Barton, Dustine and Osborne in San Francisco in 1955. He studied at the California School of Fine Arts with Clifford Still and the Art Center College of Design with Lorser Feitelson.
Beginning in 1963, Gunnar enjoyed a freelancecareer specializing in portraits of children in oil. He also painted beautiful landscapes and WWI airplanes, many of which were published in flying magazines. He was the illustrator for the children's book Oscar Lincoln Busby Stokes.
Gunnar and Virginia Fletcher Bullock were married in Philadelphia in 1953. They lived in New York City and later relocated to Sonoma, California where they raised three children, Greta Battaglia (Mark), Karin Gare (Robert), Paul Anderson (Anya) and three grandchildren; Natalie, Kristin and Thomas.
Virginia passed in 2000 after which Gunnar met Florence Rose Rosenberg and they married in 2005 spending many wonderful years traveling together until her death in 2019.
Gunnar loved the outdoors. Fishing took him from the lakes and ponds of California and Canada to the oceans of Mexico and Alaska. He also loved flying. He built his first glider in his garage and spent weekends flying with other glider pilots. He also built remote control WWI model airplanes and took great joy in flying them, except for an occasional crash.
Viniculture became an interest for Gunnar, and he planted a small vineyard and created award-winning homemade wines. His ribbons and awards covered a wall in his winery. He loved having a glass or two of his own vintages on his deck overlooking the valley. He was a member of Bohemian Club and took pride in creating special works of art for the Club.

Bio from Renee Ritter's website:
I'm a New Yorker, born and bred. I was raised with noise and rush and life all around me. My world was vivid technicolor, and no one ran faster than I did. I met and married the man of my dreams, and had the joys and exasperations of raising a family. And all of these events would have been the colors of my canvas if not for the happy opportunity of being able to spend some years in Japan.
Japan is the perfect place to plunk down a New Yorker. While it races along on one level, there is this other part of Japan that forces you to hit the mental brakes until the images racing by slow down enough to actually be seen! Eastern thought is a well from which to draw the pure water that clears the mind and strengthens the soul.
I've had the unbelievable pleasure of turning visions into realities, and of having those pieces of me scattered around the world. I'm thrilled that they've found so much acceptance in exhibitions, and I'm humbled at the thought that they hang on the walls of museums. But I have to say that I am most pleased when they speak so loudly to another soul that that person has to bring me home to continue our conversation for years to come.
For the last 18 years, I've been a teacher, too. I have all the joys of being able to step back from what I do, and think through the principles I've recognized and the pathways I've wandered. And then to offer those insights to others to help them bring out their own mental images for the rest of us to share.
