It is the back cover of my second slice book, it was the invitation for a show I had at the Tamara Bane gallery, (no longer my representation). That show was on Rodeo drive in 96, 97? It was the first painting to sell. It is Arches watercolor paper mounted on archival tycor board. I can give you the number of our friend and framer Mario, who did those for us. He is a great at what he does and that is why we have used him 25 years. That painting has very little airbrush, almost all those big pieces were done by hand and the airbrush just softened some of the body at the very end. please keep us posted. Is this going to auction?
