Entering his tenth year as a licensed Harley-Davidson artist, David Uhl has now created “In Tune”, a painting that represents Elvis Presley kicked back, enjoying a glorious Memphis spring morning. This piece of work captures Elvis outside his new home Graceland, tuning his original Gibson J200, (before it's re-configuration). Behind him stands another embodied passion, the legendary 1957 Harley-Davidson Panhead. Without a doubt he is experiencing first hand all the the early fruits of his impending mega success. This is the first depiction combining two of America's most important icons in one painting. Endorsed by both Harley-Davidson, Inc. and Elvis Presley Enterprises, the historical magnitude of this project suggests that a series of limited edition reproductions be created. Estimated prices:

Large edition: (24"x30") will number 350 with 50 artist proofs. $1850 framed.

An exclusive oversized edition numbering 50 will be added, which duplicate the actual size of original (36"x46") along with 25 artist proofs. $4500 framed.

All print editions will be reproduced in the finest quality giclee on canvas and arrive beautifully framed with seamless miter joints. The oversized edition will be outfitted with a special custom hand-gilded frame. All prints will also be hand signed and numbered and accompanied with a certificate of authenticity. A decorative brass plaque displayed on the front center of the piece will be inscribed with the name of the painting and release date.
