"Expresso Elegante"

                                                   Expresso Elegante' Oil on Linen 12x12" $300.00
This one went easy and direct.  I was actually setting up a new still life and taking down the previous when I spotted an accidental arrangement of the previous items.  I immediately started working on it rather than put it on the back burner.  This one is influenced by a study of Raphael's early period approach.  Recent studies have shown scientifically some information regarding paint vehicles and layers.  It appears as expected to be closely related to egg tempera in technique but in oils from top to bottom.  That period and a bit earlier too has always been a favorite.  The paint much thinner and realism a bit relaxed and decorative.... I like it.
