I have had the pleasure of a visit by my son for the past 10 days and during this time had very little time for painting. Now, it's back to work!
I consider my latest mascarone painting finished, at least for the time being. I really enjoyed working on it, but I feel the need to move on:-)
I have already cropped the picture a bit at the top. In matting and framing (20" X 24" frame, matted to 14" X 18", I may crop a bit more. The colors are not quite right on my monitor...there is more golden sand color in the face, I would say.
This should make a great companion piece to my "Gate Keeper", another mascarone. The title " The Silent Venetian" is still only tentative - it does not quite convey the nobility of this face.
What do you think?
Red Bubble has just featured this painting ( Satruday, 23 July). Thank you, Red Bubble!
He looks great - and I like the name :) xx
