Framed artwork/pictures

Does anyone know where I can find/buy a large (maybe poster size) picture of Jimmy? I have looked on ebay, m-ville stores, posters.com, etc. All I have been able to locate is the smaller 8x10 pictures,which, I could probably have blown up but I haven't seen anything that I really like.
I'm looking specifically for a framed type piece that I can hang on the wall. Maybe like 18x24 / 24x36" or something like that. Even a good matted print that I could have framed myself would be cool.
Suggestions??

No ideas on Buffett, per se, but here are some lovely Buffett-inspired watercolors. Some are Buffet-y and some are generally "tropical-y" but they all are quite pretty. I've given several as gifts, and they are very appreciated.

What about the one that came with A Salty Piece of Land? I forget exactly what it looks like but remember it being larger than 8 x 10.
Of course it would have creases that you would have to deal with.
I have all the song books framed and in a group. They are great photos, but just about 8 x 10s.

This poster was also given away if you bought a book at the Coastal Confessions simulacast.
The whole poster is about 36 x 24

I took the following picture taken at Margaritaville's grand opening here in Vegas and had it blown up to a 16" x 20" print at shutterfly.....
It's not perfect, but was easily worth the $17 or so I paid for it. If you'd like, I can send you the full size print (1488 x 1984).....just let me know if interested.

ATTENTION!!!
I really messed up! If anyone here at Buffettnews named Donna from Maryland gets some postes in the mail from me...they were supposed to go to jellowcannoncrew.
Please pm me! I am such a big dummy!!!! I was really just trying to help jellowcannoncrew fix his Buffett Shrine and being nice enough to share what I had some duplicates of.
Thanks so much.

A co-worker just got me a framed painting of Jimmy on stage for Christmas.
It looks like it's from the Tuesdays Thursday Saturdays tour or around that time.
From a few feet away it looks like a picture but when you get close you see it's a painting..pretty cool but I can't find a pic online

Maybe it is from Beach House on the Moon? There were so many good photos of Jimmy from that time.
Let us know if you find it. Sounds like a really special gift.

you know, you might be right.
My first show was in West Palm 99 and the next day I bought the West Palm paper and the photo from that show almost looks the same as the painting I have.
Jimmy's holding his guitar, sporting the yellowish shorts and a tucked in blue T-shirt

From this angle, Jimmy looks more like Larry David without his glasses

Well, maybe your coworker is an artist and actually painted you an original from that photo.
In 1999 Calendar...Calendary Boy for July is a photo like you described.
It was taken by Al Sayegh in 1998.
