This is an original Lee Waisler unframed acrylic on canvas with metallic pigments (sand and light reflective beading), 80in. x 90in., signed on the back ‘Waiser 1983’. This painting was professionally assessed in October 2005 to have a current market value of $25,000.

We are starting bidding at only $5,000!
Lee Waisler was born in 1938 and began studying art by the age of 7. He grew up in California and was greatly influenced by the issues and politics of his day, especially the Holocaust and atom bomb, and in particular by Hindu-Buddhist philosophy and culture. Waisler’s paintings reflect multi-cultural symbols and frequently make use of a variety of organic elements. He is the subject of several books and numerous articles. You can learn more about Lee Waisler by visiting his web site at leewaiser.com.
