From the Captain's Log

I'm some artist that was staying in one of my Airbnbs, super trippy chick, doing a bunch of paintings and this is one of them. I mean, if you look at the details, it's really unique. So it's just on like a matte board, no frame, but with a frame, while this could be something, something special.

Name the most you'd pay. We bid for you, just enough to stay in front, like eBay. Nobody sees your max, not even Captain Nemo.

How the bidding works (the short version of the Articles)
  • The first bid starts a 7-day clock. When it hits zero, the top bidder wins.
  • Enter your max. The price only climbs as far as needed to keep you in front, so you may win for less.
  • Each bid has to beat the price by a small step. Ties go to whoever bid first.
  • Some pieces carry a reserve, a minimum price kept secret. If bidding ends below it, the piece doesn't sell. The box tells you if it's met.
  • A bid in the last 5 minutes resets the clock to 5 minutes. No sniping.
  • Win, and we email a pay link. You have 3 days to pay. Pickup is at the South Loop dock.
  • A bid is a promise to buy. Please bid only if you mean it.

Description

A heavy slab of teal and black paint, with a collaged figure holding a tiger cub and wearing a head of pink beads at the lower right. The cub seems fine with it. Close-ups show the paint and the collage. Unframed.

This piece is the work of an artist who stayed at the Captain’s Airbnb, a unique creation on matte board. Though it’s unframed, the potential for it to shine with the right frame is apparent. A find as unexpected as a Red Line express train actually running on time.
