PLEASE
NOTE:This painting, "THEMIS
-the LADY OF JUSTICE" attracted quite a
lot of attention when it was first finished and offered for sale.
The
artist was especially fond of it.A
bidder from Singapore offered $27,000 US, and he accepted.
It
turned out that the bidder was a cheat, and used stolen credit cards to pay
for the painting, and used an U.S.
governmental mailing address overseas.
The
painting has disappeared and the criminal bidder can't be located. The
artist was especially fond of this painting, and wants it to remain
part of his life's work.
So,
he is now recreating it.
The
first painting has been reported as stolen and, if it ever appears again in
public, he will report it and attempt to have it confiscated and destroyed.
If
you have seen this painting, please let us know.
As
a practical matter, the new painting should be considered a one-of-a-kind
original. The stolen painting is pictured in the http://www.coolon.net/17 photograph.
It
portrays judges and attorneys of Sullivan County of New York State.
The
new painting is now a work in progress, to be finished soon.The
artist will update photographs for this listing as his work continues.
