Frank Frazetta - Illustration Original Art (1993).
<B>Frank Frazetta - Illustration Original Art (1993).</B></I> In an interview Frank Frazetta once said, "The pencil is a lost form... the artist's true vision... I can smudge... I can erase lines, I can make the pencil talk." A cropped version of the female figure seen in this drawing was used on the cover of the art book, <B>Frazetta: Illustrations Arcanum (Illustrators Artbook Series)</B></I>, a collection of previously unpublished pencil drawings published by Verotik, in 1994. The image area of this drawing is 13" x 19" and the piece has been professionally matted to an overall size of 19" x 25.5". Minor indentations can scarcely be seen on the left side of the paper, near the second and third tentacles of the octopus-like creature. Frank Frazetta produced a series of pencil drawings based on monsters and demons in the 1990s, and this is one of the most inspired and compelling of that series. <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
