Frequently
Asked Questions
Due to the limitations of scanning and digital photography the actual painting
or illustration may look slightly different from the represented photo, the
actual art will look much better, sharper and more crisp than the photo.
I will not hold a painting without receiving payment for
it. Painting is sold to first party I receive payment from. Payment
procedure is exactly like payment for an auction on eBay and just as secure.
The advantage to purchasing from the web site is that prices are similar to
eBay and the identity of the purchaser is not made available to the public or
recorded in feedback history. Purchases from outside the United States
are accepted - payable in United States currency. All the work I have available
on the web site can be seen by non-United States residents, none of it is blocked.
Purchase
and Payment
Purchase
price and shipping cost shown below. Please mention the title of the piece when
ordering. Payment needs to be in United States funds. Payment can be with money
order, personal check (shipment after check clears) (e-mail
for address information). Contact me for secure online credit card payment options.
Pricing
The listed price is an argument between the cost of producing the piece (labor,
material costs and overhead costs) versus what the market will bear. Prices
are determined in the same way any business must determine price. The prices
listed on this page are lower than what they would be if sold through a gallery
or third party since the purchase is made directly from the artist.
Regarding a recent painting purchase:"WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Just opened the package and .... WOW!!! Its's GREAT. The on-line pic posted is nice, but when it's in your hands .... WOW! I am sending it to the framer in the morning and when it comes back it will be hung next to the RC Gorman."
"I'm humbled
and thrilled and damn-near speechless! I don't know where to begin.
I
think I'm most excited about the print of "Top of the World"! I love all of
them, of course, but I think you did the best job of capturing Heath and Jake's
faces in this one. Jake's look of unadulterated bliss is pure perfection. Heath's
obvious joy is awesome. They both radiate masculine sexuality. If I keep writing
right now I'll soon run out of exclamation points and sound like a silly school
girl. All of them far exceed my expectations and I couldn't be happier."

Title:
"A Perfect Place For Christmas"
This is my tribute painting to both the movie Brokeback Mountain and to the young brilliant actor, Heath Ledger. I dedicated the painting to Mr. Ledger when I signed the painting, since the painting was in progress at the time of Heath's untimely death. The painting depicts an imaginary gay neighborhood, another of my "gay Camelot" paintings as it were, showing a movie palace showing "Brokeback Mountain" during the Christmas season. The time when the movie was first released to theaters. Many of my hours went into this painting and I included a lot of detail. A poster of "Brokeback Mountain" can be found in the lobby, along with poster for the imaginary movies such as "The Front Runner" and "A Person In A Position Of Trust". I've also given some gay celebrities their own businesses in the neighborhood, places to shop or have a bite to eat after the movie. Movie goers are already lined up to buy tickets for the movie and still others are arriving on the snowy street. A warm, inviting neighborhood - a perfect place to see a very special movie. Original painting is signed by the artist and comes with a certificate of authentication. Shipping within the continental United States is $5.00, shipment to Europe is $9.00.

Title:
"Tidings Of Comfort And Joy"
A very detailed view of an imaginary gay neighborhood or what I envision a "gay Camelot" would look like. Depicted is a scene during the Christmas holidays with some of the businesses decked out in holiday decorations. A warm glow beckons from the businesses on the block as snow falls on the street, the small Christmas tree lot and the kissing couple. As a bit of whimsy, I included a number of gay references into the business names. Original painting is signed by the artist and comes with a certificate of authentication. Shipping within the continental United States is $5.00. Email for secure online payment information (secure credit card payment) or to send money order. |

Male
Fantasy Group Scene Series
This series goes back to the days when I first started offering
my artwork on the web, to the days when I signed some of my work as R. Chris,
many dating from around 1999 to 2000. A number of my pieces then were fantasy
male group scenes, which were very well recieved. The scenes involved lockerroom
scenes, skinnydipping scenes and the like. These were something like story paintings,
in that the paintings seemed to suggest a story. Comments I received about the
paintings praised them for being gently and intellectually erotic, without being
blunt or crude, depicting the beauty of the male image in an everyday setting.

"Winter
Lockerroom " A scene of
a busy locker room on a winter's day. As the men shower and dress, the
windows begin to fog over, obscuring the snowy scene outside. * PP = Previous Purchaser, a discount price given to those who have purchased from me in the past. If you have purchased from me in the past, please let me know when you e-mail. |
