  • RED’S – DEFENDER OF FREEDOM # 7

    On the Navy’s Fleet Week in San Francisco an overpowering warship sits at the pier behind Red’s Java House waterfront cafe – an iconic down-home place where both the suits and hard hats all go for lunch, a beer, and to find out what’s really going on around the port.

    Here is my seventh painting of doughty little Red’s taking part in Fleet Week. The piece is acrylic on gallery-wrapped canvas, measuring 5 x 5 x 1.5 inches. It gives a richness to wall or desk that no print can match. I may be biased, but I consider these little gems as heirlooms. Price $199. USD. Free shipping.

  • THE BLOWN KISS

    Acrylic on canvas. 5 x 5 inches, mounted on wooden board 6 x 6 x 3/4 , painted to bring out the model’s dress and lips.

    This makes a substantial artifact , weighing 11 ounces. Add shipping (to US) $11.

    $169. USD ( my old “ $99. Special “ in 2025 dollars ! ) + shipping

  • FAVORITE THINGS

    My favorite hangout.

    Petaluma Coffee & Tea sports a facade painted by local artist Johnnie Hirschmugl, featuring his trademark black birds and pink blossoms. I took a bit of artistic license in this interpretation.

  • Ghost Bird Abducting a Nude

    This painting on leather is about to be mounted on a black leather jacket which already sports my painting of a classic Hispano-Suiza car, and blue pinstriping .

  • MY ROBOT FRIENDS

    I haven’t posted for a long time.  Each long-ago post was a panel in my long running, excellent, insightful, witty – and ignored – comic strips .  Might as well save the effort, I thought, since no one in cyberspace is paying attention.

    Well, how wrong I was!  Today a notice arrived:

    ”Hi Adrian

    People visiting Adrianruyle haven’t heard from you in a while.  Write a post,or share a photo or video to keep people engaged.

    Thanks,

    The Facebook Ad Team “

    Some one out there cares!  Some one is listening! Of course it’s “just” the programmed robots at Facebook  —  So what?  I have found my true audience .  The robots follow me faithfully.  They keep everything I post.  They uncritically accept my most personal thoughts.

    To heck with “keeping people engaged”.  Keep robots engaged!  So , my true robot friends, these posts are for you!!
