Approx. 59"x43" W/Frame 54"x38" Artwork The canvas appears to be mounted on a wood frame.  The panels as said are raised above the base canvas about 1/2" (fiberglass/enamel/acrylic?), they are smooth to touch and give the art piece some hefty weight.  Not sure of the material or how it was created there are some of Eric's trademark gold painted work on them.  The background canvas has a sandy grainy feel to it along with purposeful blurring of the lines shown in close up pictures.  The signature has a gold color to it.  There is some type of slight light discoloration above the middle panel shown in picture #3 .
