Alex 12.06.05 Oil on Canvas 50 x 40cm $900 NZD SOLD Currency Converter This is the second painting I've done of my niece Alex. The first one is called Summer. Same swing, different style, different approach. I've been looking hard at the romantic work of Italian American artist Pino Daeni. My work pales in comparison, but I'm always learning. I like the simplicity and delicate balance of this image. What I learned the most in this painting was about making the shadows warm and the lights cool, whereas I normally paint my lights as warm as possible. Veeery interesting...
