Original artwork description:
Maya is the nineth in a series of paintings featuring famous writers. This is, of course, Maya Angelou. The complete list is at the bottom of this description.
MAYA is a one of a kind, original work of art. It is produced using India ink and acrylic paint. I have stayed with my usual pallet of warm “earthy” colors. For the background, I had the cover of "I Know why the caged bird sings" along with the first two pages of the book, printed and laminated to the architectural mylar. The portrait was then painted with acrylic paint and india ink.
The painting is signed on the front and comes with a signed certificate of authenticity.
This painting will be shipped in a tube. The artwork is done on laminated architectural drafting mylar. It does not have to be stretched like canvas or watercolor paper and is very easy to mount on any type of board: plywood, masonite, foamboard, etc. I include simple mounting instructions with each piece that I sell. You can see these instructions at the “me at work” section of my shop. I include a hanging strip and a drywall hanging device. Everything that you need to mount your painting except the board.
If you prefer, I will mount the artwork tempered masonite with a one 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 $70.00 for mounting and packaging plus the additional shipping costs. Message me through this site and I will calculate the total costs for mounting and shipping.
