Description
Growing up I was enamored over the Brother's Hildebrandt's Marvel Masterpiece's card set. It was just new and refreshing to see paintings of Marvel Heroes and Villains. As my appreciation of art grew throughout the years and becoming a fan of the hobby, I always wished to own a piece of art from the brothers.

When the opportunity came for a piece to be done, I couldn't pass it up. Greg's series of pin-ups of live models have been beyond gorgeous and are wonderful pieces to see. I wanted to see what he could do mixing the fandom of comic superheroes (in this case babe) with his pin-up series.

The piece came out gorgeous, beyond anything I expected. Greg simply went above and beyond what we had initially agreed upon and just took things to another level with this piece. I'm still trying to absorb everything in the piece from Emma's traditional costume, to the background, and the easter egg of Phoenix. Greg' has a knack of doing wonders with lighting in his work, and it definitely shows w/ the fire in the background (most notably her hair). This is one of those pieces that's just hard to put into words when seeing it in person.

A fairly large painting at 16x20 on canvas w/ various paints and colors. I can't wait to get this beauty framed. Thank you Greg and Jean for a true masterpiece.

Pretty damn excellent! I've never owned a painted piece, so when you have it framed would you put it behind glass or would you just add a frame box around it?

That's a great question. It's my first too, so I'd have to play around and see what works best. Most of the canvas pieces I've seen have been w/o glass.

For preservation purposes, you should put it behind UV glass. The paints will fade over time, especially if it is exposed to any kind of sunlight. The UV glass will help prevent this. Also the painting should not be mounted, but there is an archival way to do this with acid free corners and such that can hold it secure. It's the way that museums do it. I had a really terrific framer that took many classes and taught me a lot about it but unfortunately they retired with almost no notice last year. I wouldn't go to the big chain framing stores for this kind of work.

Great advice Steve. The archival corners were an option, bu I went with the archival Japanese paper "tape" mounting method which barely touched the back of piece, but surprisingly held everything in place pretty nicely. Your friend's advice is top notch and highly recommended for anyone that wishes to frame their painted pieces the proper way (museum archiving). :)

I see this image and all I can hear is Emma saying; "Darling, don't hate me because I'm beautiful. hate me because I'm more beautiful than you."
