Saints Mania is Everywhere!

Even Muffin, Bill Hemmerling’s precious dog, is feeling the spirit of the New Orleans Saints.  This original artwork was painted by the late Bill Hemmerling and made into a giclee, then overpainted by Hemmerling apprentice Kallen Siekkinen. 

There are only 200 signed, numbered, collectible giclees on watercolor paper selling for $50 (11×14 on 13×16 paper) and $100 (22×17 on 25×20 paper) and only 20 canvas giclees for $625 (22×28 framed on stretcher bars).  The canvas giclees have been artist enhanced and signed by Kallen & Muffin. 

They will be available for pick up on Saturday at both locations, Magazine St and Ponchatoula.  Or, we can ship them next week.
