A miniature oil painting of Beauty, the rescued Alaskan bald eagle who will soon receive an artificial beak to replace the one damaged by a shotgun blast.

This painting measures 4 by 6 inches, hand painted in oil on a canvas sheet, signed and sealed. 

I'm a published and collected artist, with previous studios at both the Rio Hotel in Las Vegas and the Mall of America in Minnesota.  My full sized, religious themed paintings are offered at Catholic retail outlets all around the Twin Cities area and retail at $800, so this is both quite a bargain and a great means of owning a piece of original artwork at an affordable price.

I'm happy to accept painting commissions as well; a custom 4 by 6 inch oil painting of one subject is $50.  Please contact me by way of my Ebay address.

"Just an additional note to thank you for this beautiful rendition of the Pope. This Jew and his Christian wife really appreciated this man. The portrait does him justice."
