Description: untitled Vintage Greg Brown 1973 Outsider Art Encaustic Painting Abstract Surrealist This is a very cool early artwork by the noted Bay Area artist Greg Brown. This painting is entitled on the backside of the canvas, "Sol and Luna Killing The Dragon of Chaos." I believe this painting was created using a process known as encaustic which involves the use of pigmented waxes on canvas. This process gives this painting a very bright, rich, unique quality and look. The photographs don't completely do justice to it. I think the colors are beautiful and the composition is very nice. This painting is unframed and measures 16.75" x 20". There is a textural quality to the art which is the result of layers of wax on top of other layers. I've tried to provide some close ups of this effect. It's most notable in the breast of the characters as well as Sol and Luna themselves. There is one very small spot of pigment loss in the lower left green field. Please email me if you have any questions or need more pictures. Thanks BE SURE TO CHECK OUT MY OTHER AUCTIONS \ \ -\ IMPORTANT!!! I strive to receive 5/5!!! I do not charge any handling fees. You only pay the cost of the actual shipping. If I could afford to offer free shipping I would, but most of my profits are small and I really just can't swing it. Unfortunately, because of ebay's new Detailed Seller Ratings system, a 5=A and a 4=F. I say this because even though you may think you're giving me a "Good" score, if I or any other seller just receives 4s we will be thrown off of ebay. That's they're new system. I really do strive to give each of my customers the best service possible, but also, I specialize in selling rare, unusual and hard to find items. The very items that helped build ebay into the empire that it is. When all of us little sellers are gone there's going to be nothing left to buy on ebay but a bunch of Buy.com overstock. Many of my items only wind up costing $6.80 to ship. Heavier items will cost more. INTERNATIONAL BUYERS do need to realize that the USPS calculator is often inaccurate with international shipping rates. So I do sometimes add a couple of dollars to the cost to cover myself. I guarantee everything I sell. If I make a mistake I will always give you a full refund. Please do not bid unless you intend to buy this item!!! I will ship internationally, but I will not falsify documents so as to help you avoid customs!!! I accept Paypal. All items are guaranteed to be as described, if I have made a mistake I will gladly refund your money, minus the cost of shipping. However, I go to great lengths to provide correct measurements and nice big pictures of every detail. it is your responsibility as a buyer to ask any and all questions prior to placing a bid. If you fail to do so, or the piece doesn't fit properly, I'm sorry, but there's nothing I can do. I usually ship upon payment via USPS. You, as the buyer, are responsible for the cost of shipping. IIf I can find a box that will work to safely ship your item I will pass the savings on to you. I strongly suggest you also insure your purchase as I cannot be responsible for damage or loss through shipping. If you require special arrangements or shipping through UPS, please allow additional time. Also, I charge a $10 handling fee for UPS shipping, i charge this fee because i do not want to ship via UPS. The only exception to this would be when I'm selling a heavier item which must be shipped via UPS. In that case it will be specifically stated in the auction description. I almost always leave positive feedback, unless there's some extreme problem. However, I sometimes don't get around to leaving the feedback for a week or so. Please be patient. Please email me if you have any questions. Here's a link...
