“I am an abstract journalist of the landscape and a choreographer of the dance of the mind, eye and hand. The plastic, the decorative, the horrible and the serene that pepper the visual landscape of the present time challenges the artists who address the age of information. I consider myself a global artist, not an American artist. This galactical view is the true basis of my work–Nature is my teacher–the Master. I’m the apprentice.” –Dick Crispo

‘Cleansing Actress Series No. 5’ Diptych Portrait Oil On Canvas By Duan
By Duan Zhaonan
Located in Carmel, CA
Artist Duan Z. was Born in 1955 in Yunnan, China, and is a renowned Chinese Opera Figure Painter, Educator, Playwright, and Producer.
Mr. Duan serves as Director of the Chinese Dramatic Literature Society and Chairman of the American Chinese Culture Artists Association.

'Cleansing Actress Series No. 5' by Duan is a captivating diptych-style portrait that transcends time and tradition. This remarkable artwork pays homage to the beauty and mystique of old Chinese artistic styles while introducing a modern twist.
In this piece, the enigmatic woman emerges as if from a bygone era, her visage a blend of art and theatricality.

Located in Los Angeles, CA
YURI MARTINEZ RAMOS
"HOME FIRE
OIL ON CANVAS, SIGNED
CUBAN-AMERICAN, C.2006
20 X 16 INCHES
Home Fire" brings me back to my childhood home when my grandpa visited us every day smoking his pipe and conversing good moments.
Yuri Martinez Ramos was born in Havana, Cuba on November 24, 1964.
He studied at the Elemental School of Plastic Arts from 1975 – 1979 and the National School of the Arts from 1979 – 1983.
Martinez’ figurative paintings have been compared to Botero because of his satirical social commentary. His style, however, is uniquely his own with typically vibrant Latin colors and use of expressive magical realism. His paintings tell his story and the story of the Cuban dilemma.
Martinez was granted permission by the US Justice Department after much effort with Cuban authorities to come to the US with his family and pursue his career outside Cuba. He now lives and works in Texas.

"Rembrandt El Chingon" Painting (FRAMED) 23" x 17" inch by Isaac Pelayo
By Isaac Pelayo
Located in Culver City, CA
"Rembrandt El Chingon" Painting (FRAMED) 23" x 17" inch by Isaac Pelayo
Medium: Oil, oil stick, and aerosol on wood
Comes in antique frame (wood & gold leaf)
Size framed: 29.5" x 23.5" 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 Hamilton, Shepard Fairey, Jaysse Lopez, and Everlast of House of Pain...
