Artwork Description:

This intaglio and aquatint etching is from my MYSTERIOUS PLACES SERIES and uses a created blend of colored oil base inks, Charbonnel brand from France, printed on American Masters Natural printmaking paper. There are two editions of nine prints. I believe that humor and art go hand in hand, like symbolism and Masonic Underpants. . . or is that eggs and Mormon Cod Pieces In any event, George Washington did sleep here at a motel called, THE ONE EYED PYRAMID. Image size is 6 inches wide by 4 inches high. Unframed print measures 10 inches by 8 inches. The work was hand printed and published by the artist at The Center for Works on Paper in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Please note that this etching is shipped to the collector without a frame or mat. This keeps the price low and allows the collector personal choice in mat selection and framing. A sturdy cardboard box is employed for shipping the work. The etching is first wrapped in two layers of acid free glassine and then placed between two archival boards. This is next placed into the shipping carton and securely packed with bubble wrap. The Absolute Arts Dot Com price includes all handling costs, shipment supplies, Certificate of Authenticity, and the shipment carton. Mailing and transportation costs are added to the price. There is an urban legend that states that ... in the near future of now ... a billionaire with a bad wig and nepotistic agenda will become president of the USA, and it is from this that I derived my title.
