About the Item

Original acrylic photorealist architectural painting in full and dazzling color, where a "SOLD" sign hangs on a San Francisco Chinatown building for sale. The complex scene features light and shadow falling across tiered metal balconies, clothing hanging out to dry — including a bed sheet patterned with Teddy Bears — and a real estate sign in full sun. Lynette Cook's contemporary photorealistic acrylic paintings capture SF and other Northern California towns which convey the stories of their inhabitants. The exterior facades of urban dwellings that are both architecturally complex — and mundane — are the focus of her Shadows and Silhouettes series. The paintings feature the rhythmic dark-light dance of light traveling through wrought-iron balconies and inner-city fire escapes, as well as shadows cast from clean laundry hanging out to dry. The work captures that which is universal and connects all people in their elemental desire to create a sense of home. This important series that was exhibited at California’s Morris Graves Museum in 2016. In the same year the artist was awarded a prestigious Jackson Pollock citizenship Foundation honorary grant.

  • Colorite Spice Rack -- Original Oil Painting -- Please watch attached video
    By Mark Schiff
    Located in Boca Raton, FL
    This painting would look amazing in a modern kitchen. Please see accompanying video. One cannot appreciate this painting on a computer screen; in real life, it is absolutely amazing. Because you cannot appreciate it on a computer screen, our gallery has a unique policy. When purchasing from us, the buyer has sixty days to determine if they want to keep the artwork. If not, the buyer returns to piece to us for full refund, and we pay the shipping both ways! A collector should consider several factors when deciding from whom to purchase artwork online. Check the location of the seller. When one buys from a foreign seller, one also has to consider the problems of getting the piece through Customs. There are often delays and considerable fees to pay in order to import the item. When purchasing from us, we ship the same day and you receive it via FedEx the next day, no problems or hassles. When one purchases from an auction house, one pays a buyer’s premium of anywhere from 23% to 28% over the “hammer price”. So when one “wins” an auction for $20,000, the actual price paid is more like $25,000. By contrast, when purchasing from us, the price agreed to is the price paid by the buyer, no hidden fees. Secondly, when one purchases from an auction house, the buyer pays the packing and shipping fee, which are usually exorbitant. By contrast, when purchasing from us, the price includes packing and shipping. Thirdly, when one purchases from an auction house, the sale is final. If one receives the piece and is not 100% satisfied with it, there is nothing the buyer can do about it. They are stuck with it. By contrast, when purchasing from us, the buyer has sixty days to determine if they want to keep it. If not, the buyer returns to piece to us for full refund, and we pay the shipping both ways.
