Price: $300.00

This is painted from the live model. The composition and colors are unusual in this painting. It gives a strong effect actually detracting from the figure which is strong anyway. I did not want the piece to look like a portrait but more like an interesting unsettling painting.

This is an original, not a print by Dominique Amendola.The painting is signed in front. Dominique has many paintings hanging in private museums in the US as well as in castles in France.

Hi Dominique! This is an interesting painting. I love the background. It reminds me of a geometric abstract painting. I think it succeeds in creating a tension with the figure but in a pleasing way. There is balance between the two. Well done!
