Description
This is an actual oil painting, painted upon a traditional stretched canvas. The frame was handmade by me, and it was made in my own woodworking shop. I made the frame from solid oak. I believe that the frame compliments (and protects) the painting very well. This painting is unsigned. There are, however, initials upon the side of the canvas (see the last photo). The initials are F.B. That likely stands for: Fernando Botero. Having said all that, initials are not enough to make a factual claim that this painting is from Fernando Botero. Having looked at many of his paintings (some on Ebay), not all of his known paintings are signed. Additionally, some of his known paintings are more detailed and some are less detailed. For all of those reasons, I am making the point that this painting is unsigned. The colors are bold and quite exact, using solid body colors, not blended colors. It is a charming composition and a bit whimsical. As an artist, whomever the artist is, his imagination is quite off the chart (in a wonderful way). This painting is ready to hang upon delivery with a hanging hook already in place. SHIPPING: I will package this painting with great care for shipping. Note that it is a large framed painting. Depending upon the delivery area, shipping will be by: USPS., FedEx., or UPS. Local pick up is also welcome and will be accommodated.
