ACEO--PULLING THE RAT OUT OF HIS HAT...(c)2006 Elton Houck...HERE IS THE SKINNY ON THIS ONE...It is the age old story of the bumbling magician who attempts the standard parlor trick of pulling the proverbial rabbit out of the hat, but this bungler instead pulls out a long eared GIANT RAT! I know you've seen this one painted a thousand times by many of the Old World masters, but none the less, I had to put my own spin on this ancient tale ( or ears in this case...And if you think this one is comparable to Rembrandts, or Delacroix, or Gainsborough's version ,,then buy this masterpiece for your collection..lol.
