John Moran Auctioneers Presents Fine Art by John Okulick and James Webb in Online Sale

A southern California artist, John Okulick creates primarily geometric wood sculptures that utilize bold colors and simplified forms to add visual interest. His works “[provide] the viewer with a sense of depth, depth of space based on his ingenious construction of perspective,” states the artist’s profile on Art Brokerage. A 1984 wood assemblage by John Okulick, titled Mountain Flyer, will soon come to auction with John Moran Auctioneers. This irregularly-shaped work features Okulick’s signature along one side. Semicircles, rectangles, and triangles collide in this colorful piece. Additional artworks of note in the catalog include an 1873 ship painting by James Webb, a silver gelatin print of Louis Armstrong by Philippe Halsman, and an oil painting of a rural town by Janet Munro.

Beyond sculpture and fine art, the upcoming Studio Fine & Decorative Art – Online auction includes decorative art, furniture, Asian works of art, and collectibles. Leading this section of the catalog is a Gorham Medici sterling silver flatware service. This style was introduced by the company in 1971. The available 41-piece set includes knives, forks, teaspoons, bon bon spoons, and a cake server, among other items. The auction offerings range from a 21st-century luster-glazed porcelain chess set from Lladró to monumental Chinese porcelain vases.
