This is a pastel pencil drawing on acid free white paper by me, the Rac. Piece measures 16 3/4" x 14". Dated 6/10/07. In shades of brown, black, green, blue, red, yellow, & grey.
This piece belongs to my The Barbarian Series. It is the first one of this series that is on barbaians. I thought it was appropriate that it was Arnold. It is done in what I call my color scribble style.
Keep in mind that all art works look even better framed. Framing can make even a not so hot piece look fantastic if framed correctly! Having them professionally framed is best. If you have a Perils Art Supplies in your city, they have a good and fairly inexpensive framing department. If in doubt how to frame, remember almost any art looks great framed in black, which in my opinion really makes the colors stand out.
If you want your art work to retain its value, do not have the pieces dry mounted when framed (you may have to specify this). Wrinkles and waves are better than dry mounting art, value wise. Only use acid free material for all matting used to mount the art (you will have to specify this). It's more expensive, but won't hurt the art. Acid free matting is limited in colors, so, only the matt touching the art needs to be acid free.
The above paragraph is only my personal opinion, having been in the framing business for several years.
