Common Bondby Guilloume19” x 12”Bronze$4,500

“I created this piece in celebration of two decades of marriage to my loving wife and partner. Common Bond is intended to represent the egalitarian nature of our marriage. Neither of us enjoys a special status or superi-ority over the other. We listen to each other’s ideas and concerns and place equal weight on addressing them. I have endeavored to artistically express our common bond in two ways: the viewer will note that the two figures share a single poncho which symbolically holds them together providing mutual protection from the elements.”

Little Sentinelby Tammy Bality22” x 8”Stainless Steel & Cast Glass$6,800

“Little Sentinel depicts an American Kestrel that is near and dear to my heart. As a falconer, I was able to rescue “Cowboy” (aka: “Little Bird”) from a cat, put him on my license and foster him over the summer. He was released in late July and I’m pleased to see him often and know he’s doing well. He has quite a personality and still chases rabbits, as he thinks he’s much larger than he is.”

What Xanadu Collectors Are Saying

“Imagine II is hanging proudly in my dining room. Thank you so much.”

Rob L. | Lincoln, NE

“I am happy to report that Desert Clouds arrived safely yesterday afternoon. I did not get a chance to unwrap it until after work today, so I wanted to wait until I had the opportunity to inspect it before writing. Happily, the painting is in perfect condition. We immediately hung it in the living room this evening and it looks simply amazing. It is like having a window into the Arizona desert from our New England living room. It is such a peaceful and tranquil scene--the glow of the desert sky and the silhouetted Saguaros bring back wonderful memories of our time in Arizona.”

“I love painting wildflowers in the spring and summer months. There is something magical about the way red poppies add a splash of color to a field of bachelor but-tons, snap dragons, and columbine. My intent is to brighten your room and your life with Wild Red Poppies.”

New Mexicoby Silvana LaCreta Ravena48” x 48”Oil$4,600

“New México is an oil on canvas in which I tried to convey the difficult harmonies resulting from the state’s complex history, and the almost impos-sible dialectical balance between the ancient Indian wisdom, the heritage of the old pueblos, and the highly technological research that exist simul-taneously. Here I was moved by the contrasting landscapes reverberating contrasting realities, glazed by a veil of mystery.”

Emerging Manby Tomi LaPierre14” x 11”Bronze$2,375

“This unrefined bronze in shades of black, white and grey questions the choices we make as humans. Is mankind emerging from the dark to the light of knowledge; from the light of understanding back to the black of ignorance; or stagnating in the blur of grey?”

Young Lettuceby Tom Thomas24” x 30”Oil$2,950

“Salinas Valley, Monterrey, CA, “Steinbeck Country.” I’ve always been fascinated by the incredible productiv-ity of this region in Northern Califor-nia. When recently cruising the back roads between the fields, I decided to produce a series around these amazing ‘AG’ workers and their lifestyle. These fellows are hard at it by 6:00 am., long before the marine layer burns away. Young Lettuce is the 1st in a series.”

Green Thinking Ladyby Joyce L. Wynes40” x 30”Acrylic$2,600

“My paintings include several categories of subjects, with figurative women playing an important part on that list. I marched for women’s rights in the ‘70’s and have continued that march through my figura-tive paintings by focusing on women’s issues and diversity. Green Thinking Lady exemplifies my stylized way of distilling the subject to its simplest elements and using limited color and line to express its essence in a bold statement.”

My Aim is to See the Heart in Everythingby Martha Widmann20” x 20”Acrylic$1,200

“This piece is part of a series of paint-ings exploring my relationship with my Self and Life. A prayer, if you will, that helps me embrace the lesson of a thing, a person, or an experience I have. That the things that I make with my hands — my creativity — all reflect the love and gratitude I have for being here.”



Girl’s Dreamby Julia Hacker48” x 48”Oil & Collage$5,000

“Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything that is beautiful; for beauty is God’s handwrit-ing - a wayside sacrament.” - Ralph Waldo Emerson

“When I hold my daughter’s hand at night or meet her eyes in the morning, I feel blessed. I am given a second chance to dream with my child again with eyes full open. I strive to preserve the joyful and innocent view of the world that children have, their feeling of pas-sion and splendor. What the imagination seizes as beauty must be truth.” - John Keats

The Dancerby Jeannine Young 31” x 11”Bronze$6,300

“This is my interpretation of a Fla-menco Dancer I saw in Spain while traveling with my daughter. As with all of my sculptures, I welded the original in sheet metal and then had a bronze edition cast. My goal was to use flat planes and textured surfaces to capture the grace and passion of the dancer we witnessed.”

Mother & Childby Lawrence Schneider22” x 17”Cherry$7,500

“A simple double loop of ribbon depicts the complex mother-child relationship. We are all familiar with the nurturing and protective attributes of motherly love. Even more basic is the strong emotional bond that makes a child the primary focus of his mother’s attention. The thin ribbon was carved directly from a large block of cherry, which highlights the beautiful wood grain.”

Sun Shining Through A Closer Viewby Judith A. Kramer18” x 18”Acrylic$650

“This painting reveals my passion for architecture and geometric forms. The abstraction of details from larger objects reduces them to colors and forms with razor sharp edges. Calm and energy interact. People and nature are absent, rejecting the notion of art as only an imitation of nature, in favor of art as an object in its own right.”

African Fractalsby Sheila Burke38” x 20”Tapestry$950

Red Passageby Lisa Mishler48” x 36”Acrylic$2,400

“Most of my paintings have an emotional story. In this instance, I was painting a canvas in turquoise and orange when my husband came into the studio and said, “Oh, not another orange and turquoise painting.” Out of anger, I loaded a brush with black paint. I was not attached to my painting anymore and I went wild. I stepped back and laughed to myself, realiz-ing that once I let go and let the spirit take over, something wonderful had emerged. This is my inspiration for Red Passage.”

“Oblique is from a group of paintings originally sketched in digital form and then translated out of pixilation and back onto canvas, restoring the full texture and nuance of paint while maintaining the flatness of plane. For me, the feel is fanci-ful, soft, and complex all at once. “

Spatial No. 28by Peter Sargent27” x 17”Ink & Colored Pencil$1,300

“I am constantly exploring the 3-dimen-sional in a 2-dimensional format using ink, line, and vivid color. As I am primar-ily a pencil artist, I find depth and smooth variation obtainable with colored pencil. As a sculptor and former architect, I am naturally drawn to straight lines, spherical objects, and receding plains to actualize that elusive spatial effect.”

Here, I was especially interested in capturing the essence of the night sky. Some nights the skies just glow, illuminating everything beneath. I believe art and music are universal and can be appreciated no matter where you come from or what language you speak.”

Titansby Carol Sky36” x 24”Oil$3,000

“A storm was building as I neared the St. Mary’s entrance to Glacier Park, Montana. This wild vision stopped me cold. The clouds were changing very fast - just what I most love to paint - and I photographed them as long as I could until hail drove me back into the car. It was a great experi-ence!”

Stairway, No. 6by Christine Campbell18” x 18”Acrylic$950

“The “Stairway Series” was inspired by a drive down the California coast. From a distance, I saw a stairway built into the side of a mountain overlooking the ocean. The ocean and sky seemed endless with a fading horizon, reach-ing to the heavens. Stairway, No. 6 is painted on a cradled wood panel. The 1.5” sides are painted the blue of the sky.”

Afternoon Light, Zihuatanejoby Waif Mullins, PSWC-DP PSA10” x 16”Pastel$1,200

“This painting is of the beautiful heart shaped bay at Zihuatanejo, Mexico. I loved the atmospheric light of this afternoon with the brightly colored sails of the catamarans partially block-ing the unique architecture of “La Casa Que Canta”, an upscale hotel which was featured in the movie “When a Man Loves a Woman” starring Meg Ryan and Andy Garcia.”

Patara Beach, Mediterranean Sea, Turkeyby Kathleen McDonald30” x 24”Oil$1,250

Riflessioni sul’ Acquaby Seonaid Ross24” x 24”Oil$1,800

“Reflessioni sul’ Acqua is one of a series of Venetian paintings featuring the “back canals” which run off the Grande Canale. They twist and turn in a maze of varied and colourful antique archi-tecture that is unique to the historical city of dodges , courtesans, elegance, and mystery.”

Shallow Creekby Gary Sluzewski19” x 25”Pastel$900

“Shallow Creek was inspired by a section of Abram Creek in one of the many Metroparks of Ohio. I prefer observing the landscape in early morn-ing or late evening light for its subtlety and color. This work was created in the studio with soft pastel on Mi Teintes acid-free paper.”

Room For One Moreby Karen Langley20” x 24”Oil$1,100

“I was inspired to paint Room For One More by observing a birdbath filled with little sparrows, all fighting to get a spot to cool off. They are very social little creatures that enjoy life, much like I do!”

Afternoonby Barbara Churchley24” x 24”Oil$1,200

“There is a walking trail alongside a creek near my home. I went to the backside of the trail in midsummer, and caught the sun shining through in late afternoon. It was a joy to paint. The creek was bubbling along, and birds were darting through the trees.”

“The subject is a Cormorant, a water bird native to Southern California. These birds are so fascinating to watch, not only because of their reptilian appearance but for their eccentric behavior. I’ve wanted to capture their essence in this medium for quite a while, as their amazing complexity is perfect for it.”

African Elephant Vby Ed Takacs40” x 30”Oil$9,500

Grey Donkey #5by Jaquita Phillips Ball30” x 24”Acrylic$1,200

“Donkeys are incredible creatures that have served mankind for centuries. I admire their rabid independence and insolent stubborn streak...traits with which I readily identify. They are such a reflection of me!”



Thinkin’ ‘Bout Eternityby April Bending24” x 24”Acrylic$3,000

Grand Teton Bisonby Deborah LaFogg Docherty14” x 30”Pastel$1,400

“Last June, I was lucky enough to be driv-ing through Grand Teton National Park when we came upon five majestic Bison in Antelope Flats. Taken up in the moment, I jumped out of the car and began taking close-ups. It wasn’t until I zoomed out that the sheer beauty of the mountains in the background struck me. In this painting, I attempt to share that moment.”

Embracing the Light - NYCby Debra Trafton36” x 24”Acrylic & Gold Leaf$1,500

“I enjoy painting works of art that capture the architectural splendor of esteemed cities, institutions, and transportation hubs. Using acrylic and gold metal leaf on large scale canvas or wood, my brush gracefully ap-plies sumptuous strokes of color. My paintings depict certain details in full resolution while letting others meld into an atmospheric impressionism. Light plays a vital role in each of my compositions.”

Head Onby Nancy Ness30” x 30”Oil$1,600

Worth the Climbby Mary Van Kampen50” x 40”Acrylic$3,400

“Once I opened my heart and mind to receiving perceived obstacles as opportunities, those obstacles became obvious stepping stones. Although my work continues to have texture, symbols, and repeating patterns, the size of my canvases has increased along with my expanding life experiences. As my grandmother always told me... “Don’t let your own thinking limit your own doing.”

Ragtimeby Suzanne Wallace Mears4” x 19”Kiln Formed Glass$4,200

“Bowls have always been intriguing to me. A utilitarian and functional object offering the challenge of lyrical beauty. My work is always an interpretation of an emotion, a mood or maybe just a word. Ragtime is about the Roaring 20’s - music, jazz, smoky bars, giddy fun, a fast-paced life.”

Sandstone Setby Dennis McConnell22” x 22” x 1” Plate7” x 10” Diameter BowlGlass$925

“My work shows simplicity with very close attention to detail, color, and motion. Precision is possible to be achieved with glass forms, but I use light to achieve a “dimension” in my work. This dimension uses the transparent depth of the glass to tease the eye and trick the mind. May be purchased separately or as a set.”

Five Line Zigzag Jarby Ron Cooper 11” x 10”Segmented Alabaster Stone$5,035

“Three-hundred and nine pieces of natu-ral colored Utah Alabaster come together to form this Southwestern inspired jar, created in segmented layers of stone and shaped on a lathe. Each color has its own strength. Together, they create a sympho-ny as the zigzag pattern gives a smooth flowing movement of melody with its highs and lows. Listen carefully and you will hear it play for you.”
