About the Item

Brother Ron's Southern Peanut Butter Soup Mixed Media Painting 60 x 48 inches Artist's Commentary: "This is a recipe from a wonderful gourmet vegan chef named Ron Pickarski, who used to be a Franciscan Friar. Yum!" About the Artist: I specialize in portraiture, with a particular fondness for the Mother and Child theme, although any depiction of the “love aspect” is what inspires me. How we connect with those close to us is, in my opinion, the deciding factor on how we progress on the spiritual path. It is not our career accomplishments or the development of our talents - it is how we kiss the hand of the person walking our path with us on this journey. When I depict relationships in my figurative works, I am keen to keep this in mind and hope to inspire my viewers to take care with those small precious moments. I also paint still lifes and landscapes. Any excuse to pick a bouquet of flowers or go for a hike in search of a riveting landscape is most welcome. Recently I began an “Around Town” series which brings new excitement for me in exploring our personal relationships within the enticing moods of the big (or little) city. My approach to art includes: my reverence for all forms of life and the loving and creative relationships which they form, recognition of the light that pervades all, and a love of color. I have exhibited in many art shows over the years and have won many awards, although I took a break from that promotional path for a while. Currently, I have picked up that path again and am presently enjoying an Honorable Mention in a local “Color” exhibit at 3 Square Art Gallery and some exposure in the following online exhibitions: Biafarin “Extinction”, Art Fluent “Within”, Arts Benicia “Contemporary Figurative Work”, and Fusion “Cityscape”. They are all international exhibits. In 2007, I received the Lorenzo di Medici President’s Award at the Biennale in Florence, Italy. My professional career has spanned thirty four years so far and has included illustration, graphic design, mural painting, teaching, and fine art. Portraiture has remained my passion and become my specialty. Whatever the environing conditions of life, you can always find me behind an “art desk” of one kind or another, be it an easel, a camera lens or a computer!

Farm to Table
By Maryann Lucas
Located in Sag Harbor, NY
An oil painting of farm-fresh goods laid on a table with a plaid picnic-print tablecloth. Maryann Lucas lives and works in Sag Harbor. She is primarily self-taught but has also received instruction and support from wonderful and generous members of the East End artistic community. Working exclusively in oils, Lucas sets out almost daily to create plein aire landscapes and seascapes. In her studio, she works directly from life and captures the beauty of natural light as it transforms ordinary objects into visual delights. Lucas wants her work to celebrate all that is well with this world and brilliant in this life, despite its pockets of darkness. For me, she says, I know I am in the Presence of something beautiful, when it steals my breath, silences my mind, pushes out everything else and draws me in. I trust That. I use That to guide my hands as I arrange a still life or scan a landscape to determine where to set down my easel. Ultimately, That is what drives me to paint. Becoming evermore skilled as an oil painter is another of Lucas goals. To that end she remains teachable, finding it refreshing and vital for her own growth to paint with others. She has studied with favorite artists including Michael Klein...
