"Adam", Original Oil painting by Kelly Birkenruth of Young Man
Located in Denver, CO
Kelly Birkenruth's "Adam" (2024) is an original oil painting on panel, measuring 14 x 11 x 2 inches. This striking artwork features the detailed portrayal of a male torso, emphasizing the muscular structure and the subtle interplay of light and shadow on the skin. The background’s soft, muted tones contrast beautifully with the lifelike depiction of the subject, highlighting Birkenruth’s technical skill and artistic vision. The painting is framed, with overall dimensions of 15 x 12 inches, enhancing its elegant presentation. Known for her ability to capture the human form with both realism and sensitivity, Birkenruth's "Adam" is a compelling addition to any art collection.
Kelly Birkenruth’s captivating paintings are in the style of contemporary realism while staying firmly grounded in the tradition of the Old Masters. She is able to pull the viewer into her paintings by interweaving emotion with a humanistic quality through her supreme handling of light. Through her portraits and still lifes she is able to evoke sensitivity and empathy, which in turn allows her to create images which transcend mere representation to capture the true essence of her subject. Kelly’s arresting compositions, draftsmanship, use of color and observation of detail allow her to create paintings with a timeless quality.
After earning her degree from Pennsylvania State University, Kelly moved...

"No Pets Allowed" Figurative Oil Painting (FRAMED) 24" x 18" in by Isaac Pelayo
By Isaac Pelayo
Located in Culver City, CA
"No Pets Allowed" Figurative Oil Painting (FRAMED) 24" x 18" in by Isaac Pelayo
Medium: Oil and aerosol on wood
Comes in antique frame (wood & gold leaf)
Size framed: 32.5" x 22.5" inch
ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Isaac Pelayo is a head on crash collision between The Renaissance and Street Art.
In a household where constant turmoil and violence were more apparent than most a young Pelayo met escape and peace within the confines of himself and his own creativity. Hispanic born in the heavy beating heart of Los Angeles on the seventh day of June 1996. Pelayo was caught in the crossfires of everything that surrounded him but art served as his only guidance. After dropping out of college Pelayo turned from his hyperrealistic pencil portraits to oil painting where his passions grew more immensely.
As of today Pelayo’s work is most influenced and fueled by the crème de la crème of old master painters like Da Vinci, Caravaggio, Rembrandt, and Velazquez as well as graffiti artists such as RETNA, Shepard Fairey, and EL MAC. In 2017 his work caught the attention and landed in the firm grasp of renown rapper and collector Alvin “Westside Gunn” Worthy. He has created several album covers and artworks for the Buffalo rap moguls music label Griselda Records including his personal collection. Pelayo’s paintings are widely recognized and sought out from all over the globe. His collectors include Sean “Diddy” Combs, Westside Gunn, Benny The Butcher, Jeff...
