Here is a painting I did in 2001 - "Smarter Than He Looks"

Acrylic airbrush on heavy watercolor paper, with hand carved teak wood frame.

Framed size is approximately 24" width x 42" height.

I got the frame from a friend of mine who had a wood carving business in Chiang Mai, Thailand, which is a village known for fine art wood carving.

The frame is the best part of the painting!

...so my friend gave it to me.

I still think it is better than the painting, but thanks, Deuxcents!
