Ken Auster "Dempsey's Bar N Grill"
LIMITED EDITION CANVAS
Jack "the Manassa Mauler" Dempsey held the world heavyweight boxing title between 1919 and 1926. He was known for his aggressive punches, colorful personality and exciting fights, many of which broke attendance records. Dempsey’s impressive skills and tenacious attitude secured his place in American history and popular culture. It is Dempsey’s renowned rough-and-tumble style that inspired the setting of Ken Auster’s newest painting, Dempsey’s Bar ‘n’ Grill. Depicted here, a lone bartender pours out a drink before a mural of George Bellows’ 1909 painting Stag at Sharkey’s. The dynamic scene in the mural provides a contrast to the calm actions of the bartender in the foreground. Artist Ken Auster’s restaurant scenes, including his Murals I Wished I’d Seen series, combine the clamor and vivacity of the restaurant business with exuberant brushwork and compelling composition.

What I love about the location, and hoped to translate to the painting, is the fringe of energy created by the consistent movement of the ocean, the atmosphere of California and the edge between land and sea, with grey-silver light framed by the famous torry pines. This is a private glimpse of a world so peaceful yet so explosive at the same time."

Ken Auster's Contemporary California Impressionism took on new dimensions when he created these two eight-foot landscapes of the Southern California coast.

Ken Auster 'Shaken, Not Stirred'
While having a shot of Tequila at one of my favorite Laguna restaurants," says Ken Auster, "the bartender, Dan the man, was behind the bar, shufflin' and a shakin' and preparing a Cadillac Margarita - shaken not stirred - for one of my buddies at the end of the bar."
Sophisticated and sexy, popular yet traditional, the martini has been shaking things up since the late 19th century. Served in its own elegant glass, this cocktail has long been associated with important events and society. James Bond, whose character popularized the drink for a generation of Americans, was reckless with his women, rough on enemy agents, but extremely precise about his martini. It had to be "shaken, not stirred." How many times have you wanted to walk up to a bartender and say these legendary words?

Ken Auster 'The Art Of A Peel'
Surfer turned artist, Ken Auster has evolved his style from the hard edge graphics of "surf-art" on t-shirts to the loosely rendered depictions of his surroundings. Still a surfer, Ken enjoys the splendor of painting in the "plein air" (on location) style, and discovering the richness and broad colors of the city life he long avoided.
"I simply want to achieve the ultimate communication on the canvas-to say more with less," Ken says. Whether painting a street scene, a freeway, an urban restaurant or coastal panorama, his deft use of color and economy of brush strokes create simple, yet beautifully structured compositions. Each painting captures a moment in time charged with a hint of narrative drama. Ken's passion for painting allows us to share in his stories on canvas-simply and effectively, documenting the ordinary in an extraordinary manner.
