To keep the summertime art groove going...If you choose the Buy It Now feature the shipping is free!. This great new original oil painting would sell in a gallery for about $2400-$2600framed. I don't like eBay fluff so I wouldn't say this if it weren't true.  I've sold quite a number of big ol' paintings at retail prices in nice, swanky, high-end galleries over the years.   The frame pictured below can be purchased with the painting.  I mill these right here in my little desert studio out of select grade wood, 5 inches wide with an antiqued black finish.  This size would be $189 TITLE: The Irrigation Ditch Check out blog here http://williamhawkins.blogspot.com/ News: I am now making frames to go with my paintings.  They are solid, furniture grade hardwood or select grade clear fir in a black / antiqued finish.  These are high-quality wide profile frames at great prices.  ...very hard to find anything in this wide profile...and very expensive when you do. Just write for details.  One of my recent works was purchased by the Grand Canyon Association to hang in their permanent collection.  It will be on display in the famous Kolb Studio Museum on the south rim of the canyon along with some of the best paintings ever made of that historic and beautiful place!   I use archival quality paints and substrates and finish all paintings with a quality varnish for protection and cleanability.  I paint on standard size canvas panels so the frame you need to fit your painting will be easy to find.
