Original artwork description:

Here is my portrait of the famous blues man, JOHN LEE Hooker, If you are a fan of "down and dirty" blues, then John Lee is your man. Most of his songs are available on youtube. JOHN LEE is an image that I originally created using some of the graphics software that I used in my architectural practice. I do this with all of my paintings…. work out all the figures, colors and details before I start work with actual paint. This painting is done on 4 mil thick, archival grade drafting mylar. This material is tough, waterproof, inert, flexible, dimensionally stable, and it does not have to be stretched, like canvas and watercolor paper. The mylar is translucent so that paint can be applied to both sides of the artwork. JOHN LEE is produced using India ink and acrylic paint on architectural drafting mylar. The "Falstaff" sign is a print that is laminated to the painting There will only be one original created and no authorized copies will ever be made. This painting will be shipped in a tube. The mylar is easy to mount on any type of hardboard. I include simple mounting instructions with each piece that I sell. If you prefer, I will mount the artwork on tempered masonite board with a two or three inch border. It will be “ready to hang”, with a hanging strip attached to the back and a wall hanging device that is very simple to use. It will be shipped in a cardboard box. You may take it out of the box and have it hanging on your wall within five minutes. The extra charge is $50.00 for mounting plus the additional shipping costs. Message me through Artfinder and I will calculate the total costs for mounting and shipping.
