Charles Warren Mundy Art

American, b. 1945

Charles Warren Mundy worked for 22 years as a sports illustrator, and in the late 1980s, became a full-time painter of landscapes, still life and figurative works. Among the artists, he credits as inspiring to him are John Singer Sargent, Edgar Payne and Guy Rose. He grew up and continues to live in Indianapolis, Indiana, where he was raised as a member of the Evangelical United Brethren Church and won a college basketball scholarship, eventually graduating from Ball State University in Muncie. Full of energy, Mundy developed a plan that combined his interest in art with sports and created photo-realistic depictions of sports figures. In the early 1980s, he became the official illustrator for Bob Knight, legendary basketball coach at Indiana University, and he also had contracts for illustration with the Pro Golfers Association, the United States Golf Association, and the National Basketball Association. From those years, his artwork is in many collections, including the Indianapolis 500 Museum. However, he tired of this activity, finding it to be formula painting and less-than-challenging because it lacked spirit. So in 1994, Mundy enrolled in workshops taught by established artists such as Scott Christensen and Dan Gerhartz, and their encouragement and examples freed his creativity, especially for plein air painting. After several of these workshops, he and his wife Rebecca went to France, and since then, they have traveled extensively, including to East Coast locations such as Gloucester and Rockport as well as back to Europe.

In 1998, the couple went to the Rocky Mountains to "recharge his battery" and get distant, panoramic views. Many of Mundy's previous works had been small — six to eight inches — but here he did larger canvases, some of them with dimensions of four feet or bigger. In 2003, CW Mundy earned the status of Master Signature Member from the Oil Painters of America. In 2005, Mundy earned the Award of Excellence for Master Signature Members at the 14th Annual Oil Painters of America National Show.

"Birch, " Oil Paint on Olive Board

By Bruno Surdo

Located in Chicago, IL

Chicago-based fine art painter Bruno A. Surdo is classically trained in drawing and oil painting in the tradition of Renaissance masters. With strong command of the human form, Surdo creates dynamic compositions of people and places that communicate a rich commentary on the world around him. Depicting trees from personal encounters, Surdo’s latest body of work entitled “Tree Spirits” takes us on a foray into the forest, where leaves, branches and burls express something deeply personal. Applying his mastery of figurative realism to the natural world, he experiments with form and texture to uncover the intangible spirits of trees. Entitled “Birch,” this small-scale oil painting depicts a young birch sapling against an olive wood board. Restricting the composition to only a portion of the trunk, Surdo focuses on qualities that make the tree memorable - its narrow trunk...
