Michael Bessinger
Resident Artist
South Africa
Michael Bessinger (also known as Mad Mike The Rhodesian) is our resident and original artist. He is in his seventies and a cancer survivor. He sketches for pain therapy and specializes in ships (one and three mast sailing ships) and landscapes. He does NOT sketch on demand, but can add a specific feature (like a castle or a mountain) to one of the sketches done already on request.
The sketches are NOT framed, but are done on sturdy white cardboard and can be laminated by the customer for protection. It will be shipped in a plastic sleeve between two thicker cardboards for protection and easy transportation. It will be shipped as small international parcel (air mail) via the postal service to reduce shipping charges to the minimum. Allow about a week or two for shipping. Postage from South Africa can be slow.
