About the Item

Artist Commentary: Needed a break from some recent intense paintings so I created this simple picture in 6 hours... Keywords: Abstract, sea life, colorful, green, red, blue, yellow Artist Biography: Robert Crooker was born in Massachusetts in 1951. A life long Red Sox fan, he saw the likes of Frank Malzone, Yaz, George Scott, Rico, Jim Lonborg all play in years gone by. He has been married for over 27 years with 4 children, and 2 grandchildren. In the Mid-1970’s, Robert started collecting Vintage Disney Collectibles dated from the 1930’s and 40’s. His passion for collecting grew so rapidly that in the 1980’s it became a business. He bought and sold “DISNEYANA” worldwide, realizing thousands of dollars for single pieces of rare highly sought after Disney merchandise. Robert is the leading world expert on the values of these collectibles. As an adventure in American art, these rarities were created during a time when toy manufacturers had art departments employed with many artists that created some of the most beautiful children’s toys ever created. While running Disneyana – Mouse Man Ink business, Robert was painting acrylic on canvas. After EBAY came along and stole the show Robert went on a 20 year hiatus from collecting and painting. Upon his return to the painting studio, Robert was amazed to find that the time and distance actually sharpened his skills and improved his confidence.

Descend, Original Signed Contemporary Landscape Painting
Located in Boston, MA
Descend, Original Signed Contemporary Landscape Painting 30" x 20" x 2" (HxWxD) Acrylic on Canvas Hand-signed by the artist. Artist Robert Crooker captures the sublime in this almost otherworldly painting of a cavernous sinkhole. A small figure can be seen descending through the expansive depth of the natural formation, their silhouette juxtaposed against a misty white backdrop. The composition features a vignette of darkness, broken up by the beam of sunlight able to pour down through the open hole, illuminating mossy green rocks. Artist Commentary: This is a pretty massive sink hole which is massively impressive so I tried to recreate the photograph of it onto canvas. I'm pretty happy!

Mystical Waterfall
By Timothy Mulligan
Located in Laguna Beach, CA
Timothy Mulligan's "Mystical Waterfall" is a captivating geometric abstraction that reimagines the elegance of a flowing waterfall. The artwork features angular, layered forms that evoke the cascading movement of water, blending fluidity with structured design. Light-colored boulders frame the composition, their pale tones offering a serene contrast to the dynamic, crystalline patterns of the waterfall. Mulligan employs gold accents with precision, adding a luminous quality that suggests sunlight glinting off the water’s surface or the ethereal glow of a hidden treasure. The interplay of sharp, geometric lines with soft, natural hues creates a harmonious tension, inviting viewers to ponder the balance between nature and abstraction. The overall effect is both tranquil and energetic, capturing the timeless beauty of waterfalls while pushing the boundaries of traditional landscape art...
