Dear Christine,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
The presented object appears to be a mixed media artwork with the measurements of approximately 72 x 60 inches. The artwork depicts a portrait of the skateboard sportsman John Cardiel and was made by the artist Paul RUSCONI (1965).
Works by this artist were recently offered and sold on the international auction market.
This piece is in good condition and there is no serious damage visible in the images provided.
A fair market estimation would be between 15.000 to 20.000 USD.
This estimate is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparable items. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and may vary.
With kind regards,
Georg
Artist is Paul Rusconi.
