Why is a Peter Max painting so popular? Beside his use of vibrant colors, he also works in a number of mediums. Oils, pastels, pencils, watercolors, and some lithographs can be found, as well as a number of others. His work is often associated with the psychedelic era of the 1960’s. However, original art from Peter Max can cross over many different art movements. His style has influenced commercial art and in some cases, it resembles comic strip art.

Peter Max was featured on the cover Life magazine in 1969, as well as an eight page spread of his work. He’s also been a guest on the Ed Sullivan Show and the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. He created the original art for the first ten cent stamp, showcasing the 1974 World Fair held in Spokane, Washington. He’s also been the official artist for the Super Bowl and the Grammy Awards. His influence on pop art is quite evident today.

Finding a Peter Max painting isn’t as difficult as you might imagine. There are many galleries around the world that display his work and occasionally, a piece comes up for bid on some of the online auction sites. However, the best place to find a Peter Max painting for an affordable price is through an online art broker. Many times, you can find original art offered for several thousand dollars under retail. Some websites will also let you make an offer on an available original art piece. While it’s up to the broker as to whether they want to accept the price, you may be surprised. Many of the brokers want to move the painting to make room for others.

You can also purchase a Peter Max painting from a private seller; however, this is usually one of the most expensive ways to get your hands on one. This is because a private seller will normally sell their paintings at retail prices or higher to make a profit.

Peter Max Paintings and original art

How to Find Original Peter Max Art

He is known for his vivid use of color and exceptional vision. Peter Max art is in high demand and for good reason. Most people can relate on some level to his work. Known as America’s favorite living artist, he has contributed beautiful pieces of art for over four generations. In addition to over 40 museum shows around the world, Peter Max art graces the collections of five U.S. presidents.

However, to own a piece of Peter Max art also comes with a history of idiosyncrasies. Many of the most popular artists are known for their little quirks, and Peter Max is no different. In 2010, he made headlines, not for his art, but his collection of 36 classic Corvettes. He purchased them in 1989 from the winner of a VH1 contest; however, they were stored in a basement of an apartment building in New York City for twenty years. There was never any maintenance completed on the cars and after an extensive inquiry by some of the city’s press, they were moved to an undisclosed location. Peter Max has ignored requests from Corvette enthusiasts around the country to allow them to restore the cars, and it’s made Peter Max something of an eclectic persona.

When you’re looking for original Peter Max art, you might be surprised at how easy it is to find. He has several galleries throughout the country. However, you will pay quite a steep price for most of these works. There are other, less expensive ways to get your hands on an original art piece from this artist. For example, you can find several pieces online through an art broker. In many cases, the original art is offered for less than retail. Some websites allow you to make a “best offer” and it’s up to the broker to decide if they want to take it.

You can try to find original art through private collectors and some will offer artwork on eBay or other auction sites. The major pieces may end up at an auction house, such as Sotheby. Depending on what you are willing to spend, you may find one of these avenues is more to your liking. Some of the original art may be found in some obscure estate sales, but to be honest, this is quite rare anymore.

In closing, if you’re looking for a Peter Max art, you can usually find several up for sale in a number of different venues. It just depends on what your preferences are. Be sure that you get a certificate of authenticity with every piece of original artwork you purchase, or you may have significant difficulties selling the place at a later date or even just having it insured.

Buying original art

Top Three Ways to Buy Original Art

If you are like many people today, adding a work of original art to your collection tops the list of your favorite things to do. Perhaps you want a Peter Max painting or a work from Pablo Picasso. While these are obviously some of the most sought after works of original art, they come with a steep price tag, as well. Today, though, it’s much easier than it once was to find these types of pieces and to add them to your home or office collection. Below, you’ll find the top three best ways to buy original art, such as a Peter Max painting, and not have to mortgage your house to do so!

The first place is quite obvious. You can visit galleries around the world, trying to locate the one piece that will really improve your collection. Sometimes, it’s easy to find and sometimes it isn’t. You can benefit from the connections these galleries have insomuch as they know whose collections are coming up for sale and if there will be a high demand. The drawback to buying from a gallery is that the prices are usually retail or higher. There isn’t much room for negotiations and you can bet that the advertised price includes a nice amount of money for the gallery.

The second way to buy original art, such as a Peter Max painting, is through an art broker. You simply tell them what you want, they find it for you, and you pay them a finder’s fee, plus the price of the painting. Once again, you’re paying for the connections the broker has and their knowledge of art. It’s not the least expensive method, but it can be very effective.

The third way to buy original art is online. There are a number of websites that only deal with exceptional original art pieces, such as a Romero Britto or Peter Max painting. You can view the available pieces online, but you can usually see the prices, too. In some cases, you may be able to offer a lower price for a piece that you simply must have. It all depends on the website and what they are willing to accept. However, be prepared to pay a substantial amount for certain artist’s work, such as a Peter Max painting or other fine art.

In closing, these are the three best choices available to you for finding art for sale. Obviously, the last choice is usually the least expensive, but some people want to use a broker or they enjoy the time they spend browsing through different galleries. In many cases, you may find a combination of all three methods will get you the type of collection you really want. Use caution, no matter where you get your art from, as there are some sellers that are only out to make a dollar anyway they can. However, once you find the one piece that becomes the focal point of your collection, you’ll be very satisfied.

Celebrities such as Sylvester Stallone, Tony Curtis, Kenny Rogers, and Elizabeth Taylor also have some of Mack’s fine art. From NYC to Beverly Hills and Tokyo to Frankfurt, Bill Mack has captured the world’s attention with his relief sculpture.

As a bit of personal information, Bill Mack is also the largest non-commercial buyer of roses in the United States. For undisclosed reasons, he always wears a fresh red rose on his lapel and passes out roses at his shows. He buys thousands of red roses each year.

For the last three decades, Bill Mack art has been in high demand. Today, however, it’s best to get your Bill Mack art one of three ways. Not only will this guarantee that you’re getting original art, but also that you pay the best prices for it. You can buy a Bill Mack sculpture from a private seller.

You can also find several galleries that carry Bill Mack art. The best part about buying from a gallery is that they may have several pieces you can view and if it’s a reputable gallery, you’ll know that you’re getting an original art piece. However, the galleries are in business to make money, too, so there will probably be an additional fee tacked on to cover their expenses.

The third way that you can find Bill Mack art is through an online broker. In many cases, these brokers offer original art for much less than the retail price. A few will let you make an offer and it’s up to the broker if they want to accept it. Imagine saving thousands on original artwork!

Peter Max: Own a piece of history!

If you’re not familiar with Peter Max art, it would be quite surprising. He’s considered one of America’s most popular living artists. His artwork, especially his pop art has influenced commercial art for the last several decades. Original art by Peter Max is not easy to come by and it’s certainly not cheap. However, if you want to own a piece of art history, Peter Max art is one way to do so.

Do you want to add original art to your collection? If so, you may wonder how to find Peter Max art without having to go bankrupt. While his art does command steep prices, you may be surprised to learn that the internet offers some of the best deals. An online art broker may be your best bet for finding original art because they don’t have all the markups on price that private sellers, galleries, or even the artists themselves have. Peter Max art is in very high demand today, but you can save a bundle by shopping online.

When you search for an art broker online, make sure you start out with reputable companies. Look for a company that has been in business for decades. It’s much less likely that you will receive a piece that isn’t original. Brokers build their businesses through providing exceptional customer service, affordable prices, and the best pieces of original art that they can get a hold of. While you may think that you can only purchase a Pablo Picasso through an auction at Sotheby’s, the truth is that his work is available online, as well. While his famous works are only available for viewing at museum, he produced thousands of smaller, less well known pieces, too.

In addition, the prices on these pieces are often negotiable. Some brokers will accept offers far lower than the advertised price. In almost all cases, the artwork is offered well below retail. The galleries seldom do this unless they are having a close out sale. You can buy some of Peter Max art pieces from private sellers, too, but then you run the risk of not receiving an original piece. If you’re paying thousands of dollars for a one painting, you certainly should hire an art appraiser that you trust to check out the painting first. Some of the fakes available on the market today are so good that it’s difficult for many people to tell them apart. Your insurance company may require verification of the piece as original art, too.

In closing, if you’re looking for original art, such as that from Peter Max, you can find it online. Many of the pieces are priced thousands less than retail. Look for a reputable broker that will provide a certificate of authenticity and even though you’re buying online, you still should receive a high level of customer service. Once you receive your new art for your collection, you’ll be glad that you saved some money towards your next purchase.

Peter Max Painting and buying art

Some of today’s most popular artists still provide original art pieces each year. As these pieces become available to the mainstream art lover, people find new favorites. What once may have defined your collection, such as a Peter Max painting, now needs a Bill Mack sculpture to compliment it. Some people are rather eclectic and will buy anything that catches their eye, others stick to one particular movement, such as Cubism or other Impressionists.

Original art isn’t as difficult to find as you might think. For example, you can purchase artwork off of an internet auction site, such as eBay or from a private collector who advertises through an art listing site. You might find a Peter Max painting at a gallery. However, the best way to add original art to your collection is through an online art broker.

One of the reasons why this is the best way to buy fine art is because the prices are usually very competitive. You can buy original art for far under the retail value, in most cases. This is because these brokers find pieces, like a Peter Max painting, from a number of different sources. Some may be purchased from private sellers, galleries, estate sales, and auctions. Since they seldom pay top prices for these pieces, the savings is passed onto their clients.

If you’re looking for a certain painting or sculpture, the broker may be able to find it for you. They have the connections to people with private collections, galleries that are going out of business, or auction houses with upcoming sales. It’s this inside information that keeps their clients “in the know.” Sometimes, you may have to pay a finder’s fee, but if you can get your hands on a rare Peter Max painting or even a Pablo Picasso, it’s more than worth it.

In addition, a broker will also have the painting validated, so you know you’re getting a piece of original art. There are many fakes on the market today, so you can never be too careful. In fact, most insurance companies won’t insure a painting without a certificate of authenticity and an appraisal. You need a broker you can trust implicitly. While you may think that an online broker can’t fulfill this need, there are a few companies that have been in business for decades. They have built their business on their reputations. If they weren’t trustworthy and professional, they wouldn’t still be in business.

In closing, if you want to find a Peter Max painting for sale, consider looking at some of the online art broker websites. You may be surprised at what you find and how affordable the prices are. A Peter Max painting is certain to go up in value with time and art is one of the best investments you can make. However, you must choose a reputable company to make your purchase from and be sure the original art is, indeed, original.

A Chinese nanny actually taught him how to hold and use a paintbrush. His mother encouraged his creative side, often leaving art supplies on the balcony. At the age of 11, the family travelled for 48 days by sea to Africa and settled in Israel, where they would remain for the next two years. Here, he studied under a private art instructor, who helped move his talent into a new level.

By 1953, the family had travelled to Brooklyn, New. He studied at the Art Students League of New York under Frank Reilly. This teacher was very important in Max's art training, as he had attended the same school years earlier with Norman Rockwell.

In 1962, Peter Max started his own studio in Manhattan with Tom Daly. That same year, the Society of Illustrators awarded a gold medal for the album art for Meade Lux Lewis. This decade also brought his love of astronomy into the limelight, and began what many refer to as his "Cosmic 60s" period. Max appeared on the cover of Life magazine in 1969 and also appeared on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.

The 1970s brought museum exhibits, stamp designs, and a series of Peter Max paintings dedicated to the Statue of Liberty. He used many different mediums to create his original art, including oils, enamels, watercolors, charcoals, pencils, and finger-paints. He also created a number of original sculpture pieces that are very popular. Recently, he redesigned the NBC peacock, was the official artist of the 1994 World Cup, and created an original painting for a peace treaty signing.

Peter Max art has certainly become an icon for pop art and his original art is in high demand. There is no shortage of pieces available today, although the prices can be quite steep if you purchase from a gallery specializing in his work. To find his work at more affordable prices, check out some of the original art brokers, as they often sell his work for much less than retail.

Neiman worked as an illustrator for department store Carson, Pirie, Scott & Co. in Chicago in the early 1950s alongside a copywriter named Hugh Hefner. After Hefner started Playboy magazine in 1953, Neiman's artwork was featured in several issues. To this day, Neiman continues to illustrate the "Femlin", a Playboy character that is featured every month on the jokes page. Neiman's early success is largely considered to be a direct result of his friendship with Hefner.

LeRoy Neiman continued to win major art awards and wide acceptance with the public. He became famous largely because of highly exposed sports art (in large part due to his association with Playboy magazine) and has opened the doors for other artists in the field. He is considered by many the premier sports artist in the world challenged only in recent years by younger artists Stephen Holland and Richard T. Slone. Neiman produces about six different serigraph subjects a year, generally priced from $3,000 to $6,000 each. Gross annual sales of new serigraphs alone top $10 million. Originals can sell for up to $500,000 for works such as "Stretch Stampede," a mammoth 1975 oil painting of the Kentucky Derby bearing that price tag. In addition to being an internationally renowned sports artist, Neiman has created many works from his experience on safari, including a series of animal portraits that are some of his most sought-after pieces, including "Portrait of the Lion," "Portrait of the Elephant," and "Portrait of the Tiger." Some of his other subjects include sailing, cuisine, golf, boxing, horses, celebrities, famous locations, and the US at play. Much of his work has been done for Playboy Magazine, for which he still illustrates monthly.

Neiman works in oil, enamel, watercolor, pencil drawings, pastels, serigraphy and some lithographs and etching. Neiman is listed in Art Collector's Almanac, Who's Who in the East, Who's Who in American Art, Who's Who in America, Who's Who in the World. His works have been displayed in museums, sold at auctions, and displayed in major galleries. He has begun to join the ranks of artists whose works can command prices over $100,000 for original works. At the December 2003 Christies auction of Playboy archives, his 1969 painting "Man at his leisure: Le Mans" sold for $107,550, a record for his paintings. [1]

Peter Max 1994 World Cup Sculpture

*This is an extremely rare Peter Max Sculpture.  Peter Max was chosen to create the official poster for the 1994 FIFA World Cup. Adorned with vibrant colours - generating the pure emotion of a FIFA World Cup and unmistakeably a Max - the poster depicted a footballer thumping a ball into space. According to the artist, it symbolised the universal attraction of sport, while the pattern was simple and reduced the theme dealt with to its bare essentials.  He created this sculpture at the same time.  An incredible opportunity to own a major piece of Peter Max art.

Tuan Sculpture and art

Tuan’s artwork radiates peacefulness and serenity through graceful lines and rhythmic compositions so that while glorifying the human body, he at the same time glorifies the human spirit, exalting the exhilarating experience of life. Tuan infuses his sculpture with a celestial beauty that carries his human forms beyond earthly existence and into the realm of the heavenly in a quiet celebration of life. Though cast in bronze, his forms appear to be magically suspended like angels on the wing. Tuan has received the Gloria Medal from the National Sculpture Society (New York), a medal designed by C. Paul Jennewein and bestowed upon a young artist in Jennewein’s memory for a meritorious body of work as determined by the luminary board of the Society. He has been exhibited throughout Southern California and has been commissioned for a number of public and private works, including a memorial bust for the Nicole Brown Simpson Charitable Foundation in 1997.

A colorist, Jiang's intention was to reverse the trend of the stale Chinese tradition of painting in gray, black, and white. Jiang says: "Chinese art had reached a sick level due to its lack of color." Jiang's use of imagery. As noted above, Jiang Tie-Feng is a storyteller. His paintings are steeped in Buddhist and Chinese mythology. Each figure has a symbolic meaning. The paintings have so much complexity and visual fascination that the viewer is constantly seeing something new.

Bob Ross original artwork and paintings

A native of Orlando, Florida,  Ross had a 10-year career in the U.S. Air Force keeping medical records.  Ross was living in Florida early in his military career when the Air Force transferred him to Eielson AFB (in Alaska), where he first saw the snow and mountains that later became recurring themes in his artwork; he developed his quick-painting technique in order to be able to create art for sale in brief daily work breaks.  Having held military positions that required him to be, in his own words, "mean" and "tough," "the guy who makes you scrub the latrine, the guy who makes you make your bed, the guy who screams at you for being late to work," Ross decided that if he ever moved on from the military, "it wasn't going to be that way any more," "vowing never to scream again". Ross discovered after beginning his sideline in painting that he was soon able to earn more from selling his work than from his Air Force position. After leaving the Air Force, he studied with Bill Alexander before becoming famous worldwide with his own television program.

Bob Ross had a son, Steven, from his first marriage to Lydia. Steven occasionally appeared on The Joy of Painting and is a Bob Ross–certified instructor. Ross and Lydia's marriage ended in divorce in 1981. Ross married again, this time to Jane. Jane died of cancer in 1993, and Ross himself died of lymphoma in 1995 at the age of 52.
Below is an Bob Ross original painting we have for sale.

Alexandra Nechita the artist and some original works by Nechita

Alexandra Nechita was born in 1985 and began drawing at the age of two. At seven, she was painting with oils and acrylics, and her first exhibit was a one-woman show held at a Los Angeles public library when she was just eight years old. Alexandra's talent was instantly recognized as crowds came to see her amazing and often monumental paintings. After seeing her art, the press labeled her "The Petite Picasso." Alexandra attracted the attention of art critics and media who began telling the world about this rarest of child prodigies - an artist who had mastered drawing and color, an artist who had created a visual language of her own, in a unique, lyrical, figurative, abstract cubist manner, an artist who had only recently turned nine years old. By age ten, she was producing strikingly accomplished canvases, which were easily compared to the work of talented, fully mature artists. Her works have a developed artistic personality, highly sophisticated and fully alive to the nuances and possibilities of her medium. Below you will find some Alexandra Nechita works.
At original art broker we have a great selection of original Alexandra Nechita paintings.

Miro worked as an accountant for nearly two years until he had a nervous breakdown.

In 1920 Miro made the first of a series of trips to Paris. In 1921 he settled permanently in the French capital. From 1924 on, Miro joined the circle of the Surrealist theorist Andre Breton. By 1930 the artist had developed his own style and in the 1930s the artist's fame and recognition became international. From 1940 to 1948 he was back in Spain. In 1947, Joan Miro came to the United States for the first time. He had several own-man shows. The most important one was a retrospective at the MoMA - The Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1951 and in 1959. In 1954 he won a prize at the Venice Biennale. In 1968 the artist finished a commission for two large ceramic murals at the UNESCO buildings in Paris. Miro was a disciplined, hard working and modest man.
