Hi all -
Breaks my heart but, I've got to sell this piece. Pat Rocha, Nightwatch, Oil on Canvas, measures 22 x 28 inches plus some with the frame.
I'm not at home and can't post pics from where I am but, you can check the old lineage gallery site for pics for now and I'll post some tonight when I get home from work.
Looking for $5500 for the piece but, I'll entertain reasonable offers. Business expenses are adding up and I'm in need of the cash otherwise I wouldn't be letting this one go!

I've always loved this piece since I first saw it as your avatar over at Limited Addiction. So much temptation today, two pieces I'm interested in that both cost $5,500. It's so hard to stay focused on my art objectives. Since you need cash, do you have any Ceccolis left to sell?

no more Ceccolis - those went in order to fund the money pit which is my business. But, if it makes it easier for you, the Rocha is better than any piece I've seen by Nicoletta.

My father, Pat rocha sr., discovered this painting of his for sale this morning on the internet. he told me about it. we were both pretty suprised about how far its travelled form his home in kansas city. anyway i figured i would let the owner know that the title you put on it is mispelled or something transformed.. the original title is "Night Watch" look out for his upcoming solo show at joshua Liner Gallery in new york this november.

No worries. i just left his studio and he asked me if i had checked to see if you sold it. he is flattered by the compliments. sometime you gotta move the inventory, i know how it is. he is working on some really great stuff right now. he actually did one a couple months ago that is kind of a sequel to night watch. im an artist as well, sadly more on a commercial tip these days. but check out my site if you got time. i will be posting some collaborations i have done with my father and brother luke rocha soon. www.patrickrochajr.com

cool, Patrick - it's still in my possession - I hope to figure something else out right now so I can hold onto it. I'd love to see the piece you referred to as being some kind of a sequel to Night Watch...also - I've seen your work before - I enjoy some of your drawings quite a bit! I also keep my eyes on Symbol Heavy - seems like your whole family is gifted!
