It measures 11" high X 8.5" wide. It is unframed, however without being brass, Shoemaker's face paintings, exactly the same size and style as this painting, framed sell upwards of $900.00. This is of course unframed and priced accordingly.

Shoemaker started painting on his free time using found materials. And in what seemed like no time at all, his art became well received. The gallery soon began featuring his paintings for sale. And in what seemed like no time, he had a one-man art exhibition of his work. (That art exhibition is on YouTube.com, simply search his name or the gallery name to see that event).

Shoemaker took notice the late and well known outsider artist Purvis Young who painted on found materials. Although Shoemaker’s paintings are completely different, the fact that both artists are untrained and use found materials. These factors gave Shoemaker added confidence in moving forward as he did.

Shoemaker’s art is collected by many important private collector’s. This painting is what we call, one of Shoemaker’s Face Paintings. He has created many of these, all unique and different. And it should be known that if this painting were framed it would be priced at $850.00. Therefore, this offering is considerably less and a great value.
