...than the painter behind such works as Welll Doggies and Welll Kitties. But it's not for a want of application. Now 91, he prolifically turns out seascapes, landscapes and a series called "Uncle Jed Country," based on his Hillbillies character. (Limited editions available, only $100 for a signed lithograph.) Among his inspirations, Ebsen counts the Impressionists and Duke, Jed's canine sidekick. How does he choose his subjects? "I populate my work with animals," he says, "because people like animals." Well, it worked for John Constable...
...mischievous boyhood that came out all right in the end. But the personal history he recounts includes hugely destructive vandalism, arson, murder and a descent into decades of madness. The latter encompasses visions of the Virgin Mary (Sinead O'Connor, no less) appearing to him looking like a gaudy lithograph and behaving like a seductress; of priests looming up as giant science-fiction insects; and of his town's being destroyed by The Bomb, which incidentally turns all the corpses into pigs...

From a different latitude, singer Jimmy Buffett telephoned in a winning bid of $43,700 for a Jamie Wyeth lithograph of the President in a sailboat...
...closely related to reality. As eccentric as his creatures may be, they are beguiling and invite the viewer to escape into a never-ending carnival of unabashed hedonism. In their lush use of brilliant colors, Nolde's works are hypnotic. Nolde often camouflages macabre elements beneath slick colors. The lithograph series of a "Young Couple" (1913) features a red print. Unlike the figures in its green and blue counterparts, the red couple shares a chemistry that is palpably heated and sexual. Nolde's red is so freshly applied that it could be blood submerging the lovers...
