Description
Viewing Opportunity: Art Estate of Harley:
The art collection is comprised of approximately 500 original pieces by the artist
Harley (née Harley Forrest Francis, II). Impressionist; fauvism. Abstracts, Still
lifes, figurative. Oil, acrylic, pastel, drawings, mixed media. There are also a
large number of homoerotic pieces. Harley worked exclusively a professional
fine artist for six decades, the first half spent in the midwest and his final 30
years in the Bay/Sonoma Area.
I will be in Sonoma County from May 2nd - May 9th and will be opening the
collection of Harley’s original paintings, currently stored in Forestville, for
viewing and sales by appointment only. As the collection in Forestville is
comprised almost exclusively of paintings, I’ll be bringing a selection of
Harley’s collages from Portland to broaden the selection available.
Be sure to contact me if you'd like to set a time to view the collection any time
between 5/2 and 5/9. I will be working on it daily and am always happy to show off
Harley's legacy. Covid precautions observed and I am fully vaccinated.

Representation sought:
I am still searching for an art dealer or gallerist who not only recognizes the
value of Harley's work but also has meaningful connections to a variety of players
in the art world. My fondest wish is to inspire an active player in the art world
to 'Discover Harley!' and help me place the pieces in forever homes. Referrals are
most welcome.

Thank you for your consideration and taking the time to read this. I will be happy
to answer any questions you might have about the collection.
