About the Item

Here for your consideration is a well executed mixed media painting composed of India ink and watercolor wash of a beautiful showgirl Signed lower left and dated 1980. Condition is excellent. Recently professionally re matted and housed in it original brass thin gallery frame. Overall framed measurements are 23 by 20 inches. Provenance: A Sarasota, Florida collector. As a child, growing up in the '30s and '40s, Earl Linderman was fascinated by the comic strips and Saturday matinees. He would spend countless hours drawing these characters, forming the foundation of his future as an artist of extraordinary imagination and execution. By the time he was in high school, Linderman was creating his own art, featuring heroes involved in adventurous dramas. Things have not changed much for the man who, since the early '70s, has been exciting art aficionados with his series, The True and Incredible Adventures of Doktor Thrill. "For me, the imaginative world of my art is a slam-bang, dynamite adventure. Just as Matisse did not wish to become a 'prisoner of reality' in his art, I, too, have taken the raw stuff of life and invented a panorama of electric personalities... My art is my autobiography, both fantasized and real. I paint 'romantic adventurism,' a mystique of the intellect and the heart." — Earl Linderman
