Surfing Madonna Painting Available to Highest Bidder

AOA NEWS

CALIFORNIA - Starting at $8,000, bidding has now begun online for the new Surfing Madonna Painting created by artist-collaborators Mark Patterson and Bryan Snyder at Surfing Madonna Collaboration. The 60" x 48" acrylic painting is a replica of Patterson's now famous Surfing Madonna mosaic. To enhance the authenticity of the painting, it has been edged with glass elements from the original mosaic. For those who find the $8,000 starting price a bit steep, a $20 signed photograph of the two artists with the painting is also available at the website. Mark Patterson and Bryan Snyder united in this project to raise enough funds to cover the fees and fines Patterson incurred as a result of the installation and removal of the original Surfing Madonna mosaic.
