ABOUT THE ART

Walter Gabrielson (1935–2008) 'Poker Faces' series playfully reimagines classic playing-card iconography through bold color, exaggerated character design, and a sly sense of humor. Works such as 'River Rat' and 'The Nuts!' take familiar card symbols—aces, kings, suits—and reinterpret them with expressive personalities and narrative flair. Rather than the stoic imagery traditionally found in decks, Gabrielson’s characters come alive with attitude, irony, and a whimsical storytelling quality. Each piece visually riffs on poker terminology, merging wordplay with dynamic illustration to create art that appeals equally to collectors, card players, and lovers of graphic design.

The large-scale lithographs are produced with meticulous craftsmanship, printed in rich, saturated tones and crisp lines that echo the refined techniques of vintage commercial illustration. Their framing as oversized playing cards creates immediate visual impact, while the humorous details invite closer inspection. As a series, 'Poker Faces' embodies Gabrielson’s gift for blending fine-art printmaking with pop-culture themes, resulting in work that is both accessible and artistically sophisticated.

ARTIST BIO

Walter Gabrielson (1935–2008) was an American painter, printmaker, and illustrator known for his vibrant approach to narrative imagery and his ability to fuse wit with fine-art technique. Educated at the University of Southern California and later a professor at Pepperdine University, Gabrielson cultivated a career that bridged studio art, graphic design, and teaching. His work reflects a deep engagement with classic American illustration, comic sensibilities, and a mastery of traditional printmaking methods, most notably multi-color hand-separated lithography.

Throughout his career, Gabrielson exhibited widely and was celebrated for his lively visual language, which combined precision draftsmanship with playful storytelling. His prints and paintings often portrayed anthropomorphic characters, humorous cultural references, and imaginative reinterpretations of familiar symbols—qualities that earned him a dedicated following among collectors. The 'Poker Faces' series, created in the mid-2000s, stands as a prime example of his ability to merge humor, craftsmanship, and popular iconography into enduring works of contemporary American art.

Perfect Flavor: NONE
Style: Unflavored (Pack of 1)
I see reviews writing "it tastes bad". Get over it you big babies! It doesn't. I have an allergy to peppermint and other unnatural man-made toxic flavorings and this is perfect! After the first few times the flavor is irrelevant and you get used to it. It cleans and cleans well. I don't wake up after brushing before going to bed with a mouth full of slimy coating on my teeth and bad aftertaste like I did with the other fake flavored toothpastes. I use Cleure for all my teeth brushing and haven't had any dental problems. The paste is smooth and I don't have irritation. It's great...I just wish the price point was a little lower since there's less added garbage in it.

Gentle, No harsh ingredients, no taste!
Style: Unflavored (Pack of 1)
This is the toothpaste you want if you want no additives or nothing. There's really no taste to it, but that's the whole idea you're getting no additives no nothing. It does have baking soda, and xylitol these are two great ingredients but overall it's very gentle. If you're having any problems with skin or anything and you feel it could be from either fluoride, mint flavoring, SLS, or coconut oil or all the other stuff they put in there give this a try! I'm on my second tube! Yes you're not going to feel as super clean as the other ones but that's because it's not stripping everything off your teeth like the other ones do it's very gentle and if there's any issues with sensitivity or anything like that this is the way to go.

Good ingredients
Style: Unflavored (Pack of 1)
The ingredients in this may appear to be boring, but for a fragrance-free, flavor free, toothpaste this one is not bad at all. It has a little bit of sweetener in it and it does a good job at leaving my mouth feeling clean and my teeth polished. I am very happy with this product and it is replacing a similar product that I was not happy with. This is a product I will reorder and continue to use as I am happy with the cleanliness and freshness.

No flavor toothpaste with a high price
Style: Unflavored (Pack of 3)
Great product at a not very great price. Maybe you came across this product while searching for unflavored or flavorless toothpaste. Well this does the trick it has no minty flavor to interfere with your morning coffee or your autism. But why does less ingredients mean a higher cost? I’m looking for something bare bones, no taste, and cheaper than the toothpaste they sell at most stores filled with chemicals! Why is this so hard to find?

Acid Reflux and LPR
Style: Unflavored (Pack of 1)
I follow a dietician for those who deal with Acid reflux and LPR. Being without flavor especially peppermint, as mentioned by the dietician, can be helpful for some. I have found this to be true with this product. It seems to have helped reduce, or at least not add to, my feeling of throat and mouth burning.
