RIDI PAGLIACCIO

I painted an old clown who laughs and always stands!
He has a flashy white collar, red pants with white stars painted on them.

The clown's expression makes me tender and at the same time fills me with joy. Tenderness because his destiny is to always be on his feet, even when he would like to rest; his nature is to always be on his feet, he falls down but gets right back up , an example for all of us!
It puts me in a good mood to look at him and gives me courage!

The support for this work is a thick canvas on which I spread several acrylic colors with a palette knife to create a very special background, traced the outline of the painting with white chalk and then started painting with oil colors.

I use oil colors by overlaying many thin layers of appropriately thinned color to create the effects I desire.
Once perfectly dry, I finished the surface with a final coat of varnish to make it UV resistant.

The work does not have a frame but is ready to hang.
The work is signed on the front and back and will be accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
