"The Bags"
Mark Vallen 1979
Signed Giclée Print
22 1/2" x 30" inches - $300

This Giclée print is a perfect reproduction of the acrylic painting Vallen created of Alice and Patricia of the Bags, one of the first 1977 era punk bands of Los Angeles. The image is printed on high quality Arches White paper, with a white border left around the artwork.

Here's what Vallen said about his artwork:

"I'll never forget seeing the Bags perform in 1977 at the Masque (the first punk club in Los Angeles). Lead singer Alice (far left), and bass player Patricia, had a mesmerizing stage persona and I immediately wanted to paint their likeness. The two posed for me in 1979, the result being this double portrait."
