Many dealers have splendid coin related artwork hanging at their shops or offices

I know Witter in Ca has and Ian at GC as well. We love the art and I have a special piece being delivered at FUN

For today I’ll show off this beaut. Lady Liberty

    As an artist myself, I thank you for sharing your pieces. They are incredible! I would love to know the process of producing them

    Do virtual wall hanging pictures count? I made these just for fun out of coin images from coins in my collection. The coins are real and the Christmas tree coin holder is real but everything else is virtual



    Just beautiful Spud! Really love the Christmas tree.

    He is a member here, posts under the handle LCS; last year at X-mas he was offering a fantastic special on his work. Turned out that he also had a few really nice Lincolns and I added a few of those coins to my collection at that time.

    The Norman Rockwell collector is a great one. Tried up at their museum to get a numbered edition but no luck. The Andy Warhol Indian is another great set of you like buffalos Stop bye my table at Fun and I’ll show you the special new piece. Or I’ll post upon return!
    Happy holidays

    The Rockwell painting seems as Rockwell painted himself as the collector. There is a study for the painting without the dude in the suit.

    It appears to be for sale:

    GREAT research! I changed the dates in my above post to reflect your more accurate information.

    Thanks.
