This beautifully framed piece features an original piece of watercolor artwork glass-framed in an attractive two inch wide black resin frame with a double mat. The outer dimensions of the framed piece are approximately 17” wide x 24.5” high, although the exact size will vary according to the size of the original piece of art.

At the core of the framed piece is the actual piece of original artwork as painted by the artist on textured 100% rag, water-marked watercolor paper. In many cases the original artwork has handwritten notes in pencil from the artist (be sure to “See the actual artwork without the frame” elsewhere in this website). Simply put, this is beautiful, one-of-a-kind artwork.

The outer mat is a rich textured black acid-free mat with a decorative inset white v-groove, while the inner mat is a complimentary colored acid-free mat reflecting one of the team’s primary colors. The website image of this framed piece shows the mat color that we suggest (Hunter Green), but since each piece is custom framed, we are happy to use whatever color mat you wish (depending on availability) – our standard mat colors are:

Light Blue / Dark Blue / Brown / Maroon (close to brown) / White / Silver / Gold / Yellow (bright yellow) / Green (dark green) / Orange / Purple / Red (bright red, somewhat close to PMS 186)

Beneath the artwork is a silver plate with black text describing the original artwork. The text for this piece will read:

This original, one-of-a-kind watercolor painting of the 1999-2000 Dallas Stars jersey is the original artwork that was used in the creation of this Dallas Stars uniform evolution print and tens of thousands of other Dallas Stars products that have been sold across North America. This original piece of art was painted by artist Nola McConnan for Maple Leaf Productions Ltd.

Beneath the silver plate is a 3” x 9” reproduction of a well known, best-selling print that celebrates the history of the team. The print beautifully illustrates the chronological evolution of the team’s uniform and shows you how the original art was used in the creation of this print. If you look closely, you will see that the print features the actual artwork being offered for sale. The 3” x 9” print looks like this:

The piece is framed with an extremely high quality framing glass. We have used this glass style for many years with excellent results. We package every piece very carefully in a double layer of bubble wrap and a rigid double-wall cardboard package to avoid breakage at any point during the shipping process, but if damage does occur, we will gladly repair, replace or refund. Please note that all of our products come with a 90 day 100% satisfaction guarantee.

Each framed piece also comes with a two page letter signed by Scott Sillcox describing the history behind the art. If there was an extra-special story about your piece of art, that story will be included in the letter. When you receive your framed piece, you should find the letter lightly attached to the front of the framed piece.

If you have any questions, at any time, about the actual artwork or about any of the artist’s handwritten notes on the artwork, I would love to tell you about them. Simply email me, Scott Sillcox, at scott@heritagesportsart.com and I will tell you everything I can about your original piece of art. The artists and I spent well over ten years of our lives creating these pieces of original artwork, and in many cases there are stories I can tell you about your actual piece of artwork that might add an extra element of interest in your one-of-a-kind purchase.

History

Looking to repeat as Stanley Cup Champions, the Stars remained one of the top teams in the West posting a solid 43-29-10-6 record for their 4th straight division title. In the playoffs the Stars would roll through the first 2 rounds needing just 5 games in each series to knock of the Edmonton Oilers and San Jose Sharks to reach the Western Conference Finals. In a rematch with the Colorado Avalanche the Stars found themselves in another Game 7, which they won 3-2 surviving a late flurry by the Avalanche.  In the Stanley Cup Finals the Stars would get off to a rocky start as they were blown out by the Devils in New Jersey 7-3. After taking Game 2 on a late 3rd period goal by Brett Hull the Stars were unable to do anything at home scoring just 2 goals the Devils grabbed a 3-1 series lead. Facing elimination in Game 5 the Stars continued to struggle, as they were unable to get the puck past Devils goalie Martin Brodeur. However, Eddie Belfour was able to blank the Devils and the game went into a 3rd overtime where Mike Modano broke the scoreless dead lock to give the Stars some hope. Back home for Game 6 the Stars and Devils continued to play tight defensive hockey as they game went into overtime tied at 1. However, midway through the 2nd overtime Jason Arnott of the Devils beat Belfour on a one timer to end the Stars Stanley Cup reign.As mentioned in the previous year the jersey with the built in star design became so popular they adopted it as their regular road jersey. Well its popularity was great that the team used the design as the basis for their new home togs. This jersey also has an intricate design as the star pattern is built into it. The pattern on this white jersey is outlined by gold and black trim and comes about the way down the front of the jersey, the bottom of the jersey is green. The teams alternate logo, the state of Texas patch, is on the shoulders and there are to NHL patches on the right shoulder. One patch is the NHL 2000 patch celebrating the year 2000 and the other is a Stanley cup patch that is worn by the two teams that meet in the Stanley Cup Final.
