About the artist: “James Dudley Slay III was born on October 2, 1953, in Jackson, Mississippi. He began his formal instruction in illustration at the New England School of Art and Design, in Boston, Massachusetts. He briefly attended Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles and Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. He followed this with instruction from Russian impressionist, Sergei Bongart who had a major influence on his artistic direction. His specialty is painting in the plein air tradition and in studio, images of the Palos Verdes Peninsula, California Central Coast, San Gabriel Mountain Range, Southern California Beaches and Desert, and the Monterey Peninsula.” (Art Brokerage & Artnet) I believe this is in excellent condition. The painting is bright, bold, clean and clear. I see no flaws.The back paper is torn and I can see that the canvas is clean. This has not been examined out of the frame. As I am not an expert on art, please see my photographs for more description. This is from my friend who collects everything and is starting to part with a few of his treasures. I will be happy to answer any questions and, of course, combine your shipping.
