The original eBay auction listing

Up for auction: the original painting for Magic: the Gathering’s Eternal Masters set entitled Force of Will by Terese Nielsen.

This is the original painting that was used to create the new Force of Will card.

Size of image area: 11 x 8.25”

Medium: acrylic, oil, colored pencil

Substrate: Velvet Fine Art paper

The painting is unframed.

The art comes with a signed and dated unique, certificate of authenticity specifying the details about the piece.

If I receive artist proofs for this, special set, I will include (as part of this auction) the signed and numbered (#1/?) artist proof of Force of Will. I won’t know if I get artist proofs (and if so how many I get) until the set officially releases. So again, IF I receive artist proofs the #1 of the AP edition will accompany this painting. However the artist proof will ship later when the set releases and I receive the cards. For those that don’t know, artist proof cards are exactly like the printed card except the back of the card is blank/white. Artists are given a very limited supply of these cards.

If you’d like to view the behind-the-scenes creation of this piece please reference the “Art in Focus” article on OriginalMagicArt.com, or follow TheArtofTereseNielsen Facebook page and I will post the relevant links there.

Paypal is the preferred method of payment. Payment must be received within 48 hours of winning the auction.

WHEN THE PAINTING SHIPS: The auction ends while I’m at Grand Prix Washington DC. The painting will ship March 17th when I return to the studio to package and prepare it for shipment.

SHIPPING within the US is FREE. It is shipped USPS Registered and Insured.

*If you are outside of the US please contact me to discuss shipping options and pricing. I will ship it whichever way you feel is the best method for your country. If the flat rate of $125 is ends up being higher than the shipping method you choose I will refund you the excess amount. (I was *required* to state an amount for shipping just to allow international collectors the opportunity to bid on the piece.)

I (Terese) prepare the art and package it for shipping myself. I am meticulous about the process to insure that everything is carefully packaged to arrive safely.

Thank you for your interest in my work. Enjoy the auction!
