Pink Metallic Shimmer

Wed, 28 Oct 2009 11:16:55 -0400

$20.00
Pink Metallic Shimmer is a steal!

because..well, (whisper)
I drew it in Pink metallic gel ink. ..And I'm pretty certain it's not archival. So, I just don't feel I can charge the same for it as I would for something I know could last forever with care. But, take care of it and who knows, perhaps it just will last forever.
it measures 6 1/2 x 8 1/2

It is on archival cream paper. Because I love it so...

drawing with oil pastels and pencil/graphite from ? 1998-99(I am certain no later than this) I love these drawings but have decided to liberate a few of them.
You'll have an antique..:)

I am currently going through some of my older sketches and offering these originals for sale again. I will not be offering prints of this particular drawing. This will be the only one.
I love the rich colors of oil pastels. I especially love going back into them with pencil, it makes the pencil mark particularly dark and rich. I also went through this stick figure phase. I saw the figures morphing into the edges of the paper.

the drawing measures approximately 6 1/2 x 10 1/2 on archival paper. It can be mounted on matte board if preferred for simpler framing.

It will be carefully packaged and shipped.

This drawng wasn't signed but I can sign it upon request
