It was done by an artist named Payawal in the Phillipines in 1969. He painted nudes on black velvet.

Grog,
I cannot tell if your are just being a smart ass or you actually know anything about the artist? I cannot find any info on him and I have not seen anything else he may or may not have done. I have found a Payawal who is semi famous but just as of lately, not in the 1960s...

Busy day today, but not too busy with the Sacramento Crawl to drag leleliz out of bed at the crack of dawn and go tiki hunting...found other things today, but I will wait until later to post,as I am sure Liz will as well...spotted by Liz and purchased by me is this velvet...
As with most velvets, the signature is difficult to figure out. Is anyone familiar with this artist?
Thanks,
PTD

Didn't even see how good that velvet was until we got it back to your place tonight.
Really love the face on this one and great score (as always)
Thanks for giving me props on the find--you know how much that means to me

Oooooh, nice one! Does that date say '67? The artist did a great job capturing that Pre-Tiki, 40s to early 50s innocence that separates Leeteg's pieces from Tyree's, for example.

Yes, the date is 1967. I am guessing a Filipino artist on this on because of the style and frame, though I may be incorrect?
I agree, the style is slightly different from the polished velvet artists of fame we see, but this one does capture the feel of a simpler time. I was drawn to the colors and size and all around beauty of the subject herself.
1961-I did see the same velvet on eBay...I paid a little more than was listed there, but when you factor in shipping I think I did good.
Thanks,
PTD

My Grandfather got this black velvet nude in the Philippines in 1969. He has since handed it down to me. The artist appears to be Payawal and it is dated 69. Does anyone have any information at all on this painting or atist, etc? All replies appreciated...

The painting is based on Diane Chandler's Playboy centerfold September 1966.

Scored this beauty by Erwin recently. Same one Psycho Tiki D got
on page 14 of this thread. The folks at the Velveteria gallery have one
that they showed in their great book. And if I can remember
correctly, Bongfury also has a version of this hanging at his home too.
So Erwin painted this at least 4 times. Mine is in great shape
and bigger than I was expecting. The art is approx. 23" x 28"
"Tahitian Reverie"
Aloha!
