A few of my items are for sale locally, but I will never end an ebay auction early if there is a bid on it. Thank you for looking at my auction.   This is an ink drawing  bearing the name "herni matisse" found the lower right/center.  It is undated.  This is very intersting work with very strong lines.   Picture measures apx 12x9 inches on cream colored aged paper.  Paper is free of rips and creases. It feels very old.  There is no featerhing of paper around edges.  It appers to have been taken from a spiral drawing pad.  Overall the work is in good shape for age and there is nothing that effects viewing of the work.  No creases,  no rips near the art work.  Paper is bendable.  No age spots effect viewing of this work.   No bleed through or spotting on this work. This art work does not come with provenance, museum records, or COA's. This means due to the fact that the origins of this artwork cannot be traced, as per ebay policy this must be sold "as is" as an "After Matisse".  As per ebay standards, since this is an auction for an artwork listed as an "After", there are no claims of authenticity.  However, I gaurantee this is an original work meaning: This work is not a lithograph, woodcut, computer generation, facamile ,stamp, or other form of duplication unless otherwise stated.  To the best of my ability to decern, this work is hand drawn/painted bearing the name Matisse. Please becareful when holding this work, it feels very old and is fragile as paper becomes frail over time.  This would make a great addition to any collection! To the auction winner, if you find this is not hand drawn/painted, or the picture does not meet the above description, or in the pictures below, upon arival, please contact me to discuss a refund.  As always, my items are subject to inspection prior to bidding.  If you have an art expert you would like to have look at the work before bidding, please contact me so we can make arrangements.

If I missed you as a repeat buyer, please send me a bill through paypal for the 25 dollars.  VIP customers still recieve 10% off, but you must send me a bill though paypal. International bidders any tax claiming is your responsibility.  I will try to accomidate, but please keep in mind, if insurance is offered, it does make it difficult to claim no value.
