Tramp, folk art, Rolling STONES, ELVIS, artist showed with FINSTER- KATA BILLUPS

  
ELVIS PUT ON THE FOOTY PAJAMAS HIS MAMA MADE HIM WHEN THE ROLLING STONES. More pics and copy coming soon---for now.. Some about my HOWARD F.

CONNECTION: I had a joint show with the late great Reverend Howard shortly before he died. Some of my folk styled work is influenced by him- not only stylistically but by virtue of the fact that he was (to me) the ultimate preacher/painter.

Howard often took common recognizable objects (like his giant coke bottle piece) and plastered the image with Bible sayings. Almost as if he were a naive forerunner of subliminal influences in art and culture. Is of me and Howard around 1998 at our joint show shortly before his death. I currently create three categories of work.

This listing is category 3. These are the most time consuming and generally the largest in scale of my works.

They are owned by hundreds of Private Individuals and many Museums worldwide. One Primary Original work of art can take me weeks, months or even years to create. I generally create only five to twenty pieces of this type work per year. These are generally the second most time consuming and expensive of my works.

They are entirely hand painted Versions of certain of my Primary Original Paintings. PRIMARY ORIGINAL pieces and wanted something similar but not necessarily as expensive. They are similar to but in no way identical to the Primary Originals after which they take their inspiration.

They are also not merely a re-painting. Because each one contains new artistic- discoveries. Which never occurred in the PRIMARY ORIGINALS.

They become an extension- a continuation of the PRIMARY ORIGINALS from which they are inspired. I typically spend a week, two weeks or even longer on each piece. They sometimes (but do not always) have unique frames which. I embellish with one-of-a-kind mattes and vintage objects de' art and unusual titles. They may be framed very simply - or be painted on gallery wrap canvas which requires no frame.

I create only between ten to fifty pieces in this category of work each year. All these pieces are ethically technically legally. (and in every way) Original Paintings. These are generally my least expensive category of work. They also take me the least amount of time overall.

Unlike the VERSIONS of WORK category, see 2. Above these pieces are as close to being identical to the PRIMARY ORIGINALS as I can possibly mange.

The only exception being the frames. They are entirely hand painted (generally smaller) replicas of certain Primary Originals. Ethically, technically and in every way these pieces are also Original Paintings. These pieces require weeks for me to complete.

They often have very unusual frames which. I embellish with one-of-a-kind mattes and vintage objects of art and unusual titles.

They may be painted on wood, canvas or other materials. I usually create between twenty to one hundred pieces in this category of work each year. NOTE: I'VE BEEN CREATING WORK IN THIS CATEGORY FOR APPROXIMATELY 20 TO 30 YEARS. FOR NEW CREATIVE VENTURES SUCH AS YOUTUBE PRODUCTIONS AND OTHER THINGS. PLEASE NOTE THAT BY THE END OF 2021 -I WILL NO LONGER BE CREATING WORK IN THIS CATEGORY.

IN ADDITION, A LIMITED AMOUNT OF THESE PIECES IN CIRCULATION LENDS ADDITIONAL PROBABILITY. THAT MY WORK WILL APPRECIATE OVER TIME.
