Description
Portrait of Janet Jones, 1987
Acrylic on Canvas Framed. Signed and dated lower left.
40" x 31 without the floating frame.

Originally sold at Mirage Editions in Santa Monica, 1987 with the original frame (same as Nagel frames). I received her earlier this year in perfect condition. I am the second owner.

Mirage Editions, Inc. was the publisher for the famous artists Patrick Nagel and Dennis Mukai. If you don't know...Dennis Mukai is a renowned artist known for his paintings of beautiful women, notably creating iconic portraits of many model's and actresses including Janet Jones (wife of Wayne Gretzky) in the 1980s, such as the popular "Jonsey" serigraph.

I BUY MUKAI! Got one to sell please contact me. I run PatrickNagelArts on Instagram.

Heavy duty wood backed canvas and frame. Built to last just like Nagel. Mukai and Nagel were dear friends and Mukai worked for Playboy for nearly 20 years.

Janet Marie Gretzky (née Jones; born January 10, 1961) is an American actress and dancer. She is married to Canadian ice hockey Hall of Fame player Wayne Gretzky.

(I was fortunate to meet Wayne and Janet shortly after this canvas was made.) Lovely couple!)

Not actively for sale, but opem to discussing private sale and offers. Dennis is a friend of mine so if you are looking for art feel free to contact me. So beautifully late 80's early 90s contemporary! My photo doesn't do her justice.

This is great. Your collection is stunning. One day, I will need to track a piece by this artist too. Reminds me of the Aha video for Take On Me!

Thank you so much! When that day comes let me know and I will help you if I can. I love it when new collectors appreciate Mukai. He is a good friend!

Without her, Hockey would not have been successful expanding to the west coast to make the NHL a viable top 4 North American sports league.
