About this Item
Original drawing. 21.5 x 12 cm. to visible sheet edge, pen and ink, under a passepartout, framed and glazed (30.7 x 21.5 cm.), black painted steel frame by Nielsen, signed and dated below the figure. 07/[19]92. £300.00 Unexamined out of the frame. If Conklin had arrived in San Francisco before the 1967 Summer of Love there would have been a ?Big Six' group of great psychedelic poster artists of the Bay Area along with Rick Griffin, Alton Kelley, Vic- tor Moscoso, Stanley Mouse and Wes Wil- son. Conklin claims to have never taken LSD before he set out to produce tens of iconic concert posters for Bill Graham. This beautifully executed portrait of, pre- sumably, a fairy was produced after he re- started his career in 1990 and long after he had confirmed his artistic vision of the six- ties by taking LSD. Explaining perhaps the open third eye above the figure. 243803. Seller Inventory # 243803
