Up for auction is an original Ed Templeton painting signed and dated 1992. It measures 15" x 40". I don't know what type of paint was used. It was painted on chip board. The image was used as a skateboard graphic for Ed's first company called "television". When I was given this painting in the late 90's I was told that it had to be cut in half in order to be scanned properly. Sounds totally nuts to me but it definitely has been cut in half. Perfectly too. See photos. When framed it is not very noticeable that it is 2 pieces. It could be fixed professionally so that it's perfect and seamless. T is some puckering w it got moist at some point in storage and warped the chip board slightly. It sounds worse than it is, it's really not in that bad of shape. This graphic was sublimate screen printed and used to produce slick bottom or sublaminate skateboards witch were popular in the early 1990's. The image shows a green alien grabbing a guy from behind and the guy has plugs for hands. The date on his wrist is 6-29-70. Maybe it's Ed's birthdate? Maybe it's not? I don't know. What I do know is that this is an original Ed Templeton painting and I will pack it well for you. If you have any questions, need validation, or want more photos please email me.
