"Am I now the village Cat Women!"
Cassie here is on the Cusp.  She is afraid she may just have slipped over the edge.  Here, blissful having recused her 3rd kitty, she says this is it.  Yet in her heart an argument arises, it is not over, how could it be?  Cat love run deep and she knows that with the next rescue she will become the token Cat Woman.  "Really," she asks herself, "is that too high a price to pay for love?"

This is an ORIGINAL color pencil and marker painting.  Colored pencils are applied in multiple layers, allowing for full color saturation.  The finished product has the satin sheen of an oil painting.  Alma Lee has specialized in this particular medium and has written several how to's on the subject.

ABOUT ALMA LEE
:

 ARTIST STATEMENT: I have loved art longer than life and failed and succeeded in both often. Leonardo da Vinci said; "Where the spirit does not work with the hand there is no art." Concerning my work I have found no truer statement. What I create is a direct expression of the governing spirit within in me. Be it light, I pour out its overflow, be it darkness, I wrestle to relinquish it to the light. Christ has shown me the beauty in both. Recently color pencil and markers have become my weapon of choice, but in the not so distant past I have drawn and created my art digitally. Now more than not, I choose to employ them both.

 STYLE: In 2007, I became interested with Cubism's form, seduced by it’s all consuming color and infinite design possibilities. It is an art expression that both captivates and eludes me at the same moment. I find it much like capturing a lighting bolt, a huge explosion caught in and instant before it flees. I guess we could say the same thing about life

HISTORY: I have been a professional artist since l988 while employed in commercial art. In 1997 I founded Alma Lee Originals Inc, and began a line of painted furniture . In 2001 I contracted with Alaska Momma in New York, and entered into art licensing. I have sold my fine art all over the world and currently hold the licenses for over 50 images

THE TOP 10 WAYS TO TELL YOUR PURCHASE IS A BOOTLEG.

1.Is the seller listed as living in the United States? If so don't stop there, if they list their email or telephone number check it out on one of the numerous reverse address search sites (I use spokeo.com) find out where that cell phone or email address is really coming from. If it is listed as coming from anywhere but the location they provided in the listing be wary!)


2. It seems obvious but check to see if they have multiple listing of the same original, on the same site.


3.If the price figures out to be less than $1.50 per square inch from a well known artist is is a bootleg.


4. Check to see if the artist is listing under the "direct from artist" contact seller and ask if he/she can tell you anything about the origins of the painting and what inspired him/her to paint it. Or "are you the Artist?" If you get a no, or I don't know for either of those questions, walk away.


5.If they are listing it as signed by artist ask whose signature is on the painting. Enter that name into Goggle and if can find a website, email/phone number contact them and find out if the seller has permission to sell there work and ask the questions listed above in #4. Again anything seems out of place it probably is.


6. type in the ebay search some of the keywords that describe the art you are interested in and check to see if there are similar works being sold particularly if they are higher priced, that may be your original artist. Contact them (most artists are more than happy to talk with potential clients and fully appreciate a tip concerning a possible bootleg.


7.Ask the seller if they have any other art for sell, when they respond check the spelling and grammar in their reply. The grammar in particular is a red flag.


8.Check toward the end of the listing for some fine print that says something similar to this "* Although this painting is an original that is painted and signed by the artist, there are several examples/interpretations of this painting that are very similar in design. These reproductions are also painted and signed by the original artist" (For the most part American Artists hate to paint 2 of kind, and if they do they will keep the Original at the original price and run reproductions after that but they will always refer to them as a Giclee'(if on Canvas) or a limited edition (if on paper)


9.If the title of the Auction says Original and the 1st sentence in the ad is "this is not a print" that is a sure sign that it is a print.


10.Check out the Sellers store, if he is selling more than 10 non art items, or his store is listed with a non-art related title he is not an artist. Artist may sell other things with their accounts occasionally but true artists sell primarily ART. Check the feedback to see how much of the positive feedback is coming from Art Sales! If they are going to consistently sell other things they will open a different store.
