Hawkins paintings are stamped with a unique certified SOA/COA (Stamp of Authenticity -- Craven Studios 2024, by William Hawkins) **" Make an Offer " option is allowed for this auction for immediate sale. We recommend offered prices in the $547 - $647 range for this size -- framed or unframed can be requested. *** Handling & Shipping charges can sometimes be combined/discounted but please keep in mind that the careful handling (varnishing, preparing, and packing) of my paintings, post-easel work, is a true labor of love that Carmen and Marissa gladly help with. We do not charge a lot for all the extra work to carefully provide a safe delivery of your new art piece and we have not raised our prices in over 20 years of online art selling. In fact, for both commissioned paintings and shipping we have actually lowered prices. However, despite our pioneering efforts to alleviate barren wall syndrome and to combat worldwide inflation, ALL our costs have continued to rise. Because of that we can no longer offer combined /discounted shipping for the smaller study-sized canvas paintings. We request that auction-won paintings not be immediately re-sold on online auction sites. Retail/gallery price/value would be approx. $6 per square inch of canvas. An18x24 Hawkins original cloudscape recently sold at an estate auction for $3800. Many have sold for more than $2000 and large works upwards of $5000-$10,000. This is collectable, affordable, genuine fine art by a (still) living American artist. 2004-2024 Thank you to my patrons and all the beautiful new art friends who have made these 20 years of my online art gallery possible! Big and small Galleries, Museums, Grand Canyon Association, Corporate collections , US. Senators, Hollywood personalities, BBC programs and the new ABC television series Whiskey Cavalier have all hung a Wm. Hawkins original work on their walls… but you guys that bid and buy direct from me in the little desert studio here in Tucson, AZ are the best! Please be patient with me as I work to paint, photograph, list for sale and package our little attempts at making the walls a better place to live (for our eyes). My wife Carmen helps me a lot as do a couple of the kids (grown but not forgotten!). As always, please feel free to contact me directly with any questions about the work or commissioning a custom work. Did you miss your favorite painting on an auction that ended without you? Commissions welcome. I can make a painting to your size and design specifications...or another version of your favorite scene of a W. Hawkins original. Just send me a note requesting information about special order paintings and I will get back to you. I can make another version of any of my paintings you see here, or on my social media accounts, on the canvas size that best fits your needs. This painting was made in the studio. I typically work from reference images such as past paintings, studies painted from life or photographs. I have done quite a bit of painting "en plein air" but mostly I paint in the studio creating works that are either inspired by references mentioned above or from the many fond and indelible recollections of the 4000 plus paintings I've made over the past 38 years . § Award winning, Published, Listed artist (Art Calendar Magazine, International Artist, 3 yrs.

We walked in to view the paintings, spied one that looked like it was one of yours and were so pleased to see that we were right. It was great to see your work on display! Congratulations!" -- Cindy "LOVE this man’s work!!" -- JM "Bill, I received the painting last week. It is everything I hoped it would be. The frame is fantastic as well. Excellent craftsmanship. I haven't found one that well made in years! Hope to buy more as economy improves." -- Jim "I received your painting today. It's quite beautiful. I will enjoy it from now on.
