Only top shelf from this icon. Chris Kvale that is. Haven't priced others outside the area, as we have a few "A" grade painters here in the Twin Cities.
When my De Rosas need help someday, I'll hope he's interested in helping me.
Plus, I can drive to his studio in 14 minutes!
By the way, if you haven't had an opportunity to see his lugwork, seek a frame of his when given the chance.
I'm smitten by the frameset I picked up this morning.
