Artist Needs Traveling Cash!

 
 
Wine & Jarlsberg and Mug of Beer, each 24" x 24", oil on panel

Oddly, these two pieces have been in my personal collection and have been showing at various venues for over a year, but have not yet found a home. I say "oddly", because - as sometimes happens - these have generated more than the usual amount of comments and positive feedback, but have not sold yet. Wine & Jarlsberg recently won an award at a regional competition.

It happens that I am in need of some traveling funds for a couple of upcoming trips, and so I'm more than usually open to being taken advantage of. These have been showing tagged at up to $750 each, and are right now displayed on my Fine Art America page for $500 each.

For a very limited time (this week, only), I'm offering these as a set for a mere $500. That's good up to September 9th. For the rest of September, I'll let them go for $600, and after that they will go back to the normal price.

Get 'em while they're hot!

Own the Original!

Just a reminder that - now that they've been professionally scanned and digitally stored -  the original art for each of these two recent images of G.K. Chesterton is available for purchase.

 
Astonished at the World  and  Where Ought I be?

Astonished at the World is an original oil painting on wood panel and is 18" x 24". Where Ought I Be is charcoal on Canson paper and is 12" x 16". You can read more about these in previous posts, below.

These are listed on Fine Art America for $1200 and $500, respectively... but I'm not averse to a little good-natured dickering. Baby needs a new set of sable rounds!

Astonished at the World has already been immortalized as a book jacket. Think of how well this would fill the space now occupied by that print of the poker-playing dogs. Imagine the delighted admiration of your Chestertonian friends as you display the original over your mantle, or at your next meeting! Imagine a more shallow and venal sales pitch! Just imagine it!
