Val Mayerik - Original Science Fiction Painting (1979)
Val Mayerik - Original Science Fiction Painting (1979). A stunning piece, this is an unpublished work by Val Mayerik. In the artist's own words, "I actually did the piece in '76 but did a few revisions ... in '79 and thus dated it then. I did that piece along with two other fantasy pieces in '76 in preparation for my move to NYC early in '77. I wanted a few strong illustrations to present to art directors in the city to try and obtain book and magazine cover assignments. One of the companion pieces did make it onto the cover of an early Heavy Metal issue. The painting (offered here) never saw print but every once in a while some small publishers would express an interest in maybe including it in a portfolio of my painted work." Measuring a large 24" x 36" and in excellent condition, the painting is signed by the artist in the lower left. Important notice: 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. 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.
