Junior's League
MEDIUM: Limited Edition Hand-Painted Cel
SIZE: 25.5" x 13"
EDITION SIZE: 350
SIGNED: Ken Griffey Jr.
SKU: WB1070
ABOUT THE IMAGE: It’s the big game! This hand painted animation cel captures one of the Looniest moments that America’s Pastime has ever seen! Ken Griffey Jr., one of the greatest superstars ever to play the game connects on a pitch from the Tasmanian Devil, sending catcher Elmer Fudd on a solid “wine dwive” to center field. Daffy Duck kneels in the “on deck” circle, poised to follow Griffey in the betting line up. Officiating the game, umpire Bugs Bunny signals that he’s “outta there!” (obviously referring to the Flying Elmer…).
ABOUT THE MEDIUM: This cel began with a layout drawing by Iwao Takamoto and a tight pencil drawing by Dan Haskett. A master inking of these character drawings was then silkscreened, along with the Warner Bros. Animation Art seal, onto an acetate sheet (or “cel”). Each cel was then meticulously hand-painted on the reverse side. Through the miracle of modern technology, Andy Phillipson’s rendering of a Bob Singer background layout was digitally composed with an approved photo of Ken Griffey Jr., and was reproduced using the lithography process. Each cel was signed by Ken Griffey Jr. In the final step of production, the limited edition number was hand inked on each cel in an edition size of 350. Upon completion of the edition, the master inking and original background were archived.
Tom Everhart "Posing"
WHEN:
Saturday, Nov. 1st / 6:00PM - 9:00PM
WHERE:
Choice Contemporary Gallery
313 N Beverly Dr.
Beverly Hills, CA 90210
ABOUT:
Tom Everhart is a celebrated American painter whose work uniquely bridges the worlds of fine art and popular culture through his exclusive use of Charles Schulz’s Peanuts characters. Initially trained at Yale School of Art and later mentored by Schulz himself, Everhart transitioned from traditional illustration and architectural rendering to a bold, expressive painting style after a life-altering battle with cancer in the late 1980s.
"The "Posing" series did grow out of the previous "Hide and Seek" series that focused on the questions of one's attempt to hide their intellectual honesty in order to seek out a newly designed image... a "Poser" tsunami of posturing between who was being real, and who was obviously pretending to be real, often with the intent to deceive, could no longer be ignored." - Tom Everhart
