Original Bill Erwin Black Velvet wahine available for purchase

Pages: 1 0 replies

I recently acquired two Bill Erwin ORIGINAL black velvets and I really only have room for one in my lounge. Long story short: I'd like to make this one available for purchase:

If anyone is interested, just PM me with your offer. (Don't be shy! You won't insult me). If I like it, we can do business. I'm also open to giving you more pics and (limited) info if requested.

I should say the painting is in fine shape for displaying on a tiki bar wall (etc)... Not minty, but no tears or rips either. It's about 2.5 feet wide by 3 feet tall. Not exact measurements, but I can get those to you later...

The last owner told me it's a portrait of one of the "Hawaii Calls" dancers, and that she and her husband purchased it, along with several other paintings, directly from Erwin over several visits to Honolulu back in the day. The owner also had a painted portrait that Erwin had done of her many decades ago (I have photos of that too, but it's not in my possesion)...
