We’re still working on the full details, but we’re proud to offer this 36″x36″ painting of Chris Zorich, done by Chris Peldo, to the highest bidder.

Per the artists request, initial bidding is at $1,000. Any money we raise over that will go to charity. Until we set up a proper auction page, please feel free to email us with any inquiries or offers. If you have a charity you would like us to consider, we’ll accept those suggestions as well.

Some facts about the artist:

Creative Director by day and prolific Pop Artist at all other times is one way to define Chris Peldo. Originally from California, he now calls Chicago home and for 25 years he has honed his artistic side with an array of abstract expression that collides with Pop Art. Many fans make mention of his work as sort of like “Pollack and Warhol had a kid”.

Peldo paintings have been hung at a wide variety of famous locations, including the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Chris was chosen by Absolut Vodka to produce the image for the state of Illinois in the international “Absolut Statehood” ad campaign. Included amongst commission clients is a project for Walt Disney Co.
