I was thrilled to discover your website and find that you were offering multiple products with the image of the Filben Maestro as my grandfather, William Filben, was the inventor. I will be framing this photo for my home and anticipate ordering many other items in the near future for my large extended family

When I saw this photo of my hero, I had to obtain it because as you can see in the photo, I have Babe Ruth when he was young & strong initially with the Yankees. I want to truly thank the artist for his photo!

Terrific concert photo of Madonna back in the '80s. I hope the owner of this series featured in Life Magazine will make more available. They are stunning.

Artist's Description

I prefer at least one sitting. Yet, if you wish, I will paint it from your favorite photo, provided it's clear, and well defined. I even take portrait commissions from black and white photos, and "translate" the tonal values into color. Prices start at $400., plus shipping, on an 18"X24" stretched canvas. For an appointment at my Fox Island, WA, studio/gallery, phone, 1 253 549 7700.
For instance, this portrait was painted from a black and white, 110 year old, hand tinted photo. The tinting was of no use at al, and I had to use a magnifying glass to read what seemed to be very corroded letters on the hat.
"CS," probably starts with "R," for "REVENUE CUTTER SERVICE".( I googled it) The next set of letters looks like "UFA," but would make more sense if it were "USL," for "UNITED STATES LIFE," which proceeds the last set, "SAVING SERVICE" (The viewer can't see the last E)
In 1915, the two...
About Charles Munn
Short Bio: As a teen, I toyed with sculpting, but painting took over. I worked with, and learned from some very good artists. Wrote a couple of books: Paradise Now and Becoming The Thinker: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0738803952/qid=973109424/sr=1-3/103-1156231-7357428 Showed and sold in the USA, England, Europe and parts of Asia. Became a full time painter in 1977. Still at it and will probably continue until I die. Each of my prints (Giclees) are limited to 10 editions. Long Bio: Sketching people and places is a natural, childlike thing. Yet, unlike most children, I couldn't give it up. I was captured by the form of a thing, which may explain an early interest in sculpting. A high school art teacher entered one of my...

I'm sending the metal print of our Norwegian Grandpa for his great-grand daughter, who now lives in Norway, and is marrying a Norwegian man. A special heirloom for the family. How I love your portraits, Charlie!
Charles Munn replied:
Thank you so much, Mary Jane, I hope she loves it as much as you!
Danielle R T Haney
What a Wonderful Family Treasure this is and always will be! I'm sure Your Grandpa was an Amazing Man.. and would be so Very Proud of his Gifted and Generous Grandson. AWESOME Painting!!
Charles Munn replied:
Thank you so much, Danielle! Grandpa died when I was 7, yet he remains my role model.

Charles, Your work is great. Love this picture of Grandpa. Very excited that now I will be adding to my house a beautiful portrait of Grandpa Peterson. You show great honor to this hero who saved so many lives.
Charles Munn replied:
Thank you so much, Marilyn! Our cousin, Wayne Peterson, said he's seen Grandpa's Spanish America medals, but he doesn't know what happened to them. Too bad, because I would have painted them pinned to his P Jacket.
Mary Jane Page
To see the transformation of Grandpa from old photo to painting is like an introduction. Now I finally see him as he was, in color, with the depth of expression and sensitivity of his being. It is truly miraculous, Charles, how you brought life with your brush strokes, to show us Grandpa Peterson, in the prime of his youth,.... twas so long ago,,, but how beloved he is!
Charles Munn replied:
Thank you, Mary Jane!
Charles Munn replied:
BTW, Mary Jane, I may be the only living family member who actually knew Grandpa Peterson and watched him paint sailing ships from memory.
