Description

For me this is the "Mother" of all Holy Grails. There IS no comic book art that could ever mean more to me than this painting. This was Zappa's first gold record and my first FZ record at the age of 13. When I heard it, everything I thought about music changed.

Actually done in casein paint, the piece is vivid and powerful at 21 x 28"
