ABOUT THE ARTWORK

This figurative color investigation sources inspiration from the “Tomb of the Diver” at Paestum, dated approximately 470 B.C and attributed to the Greek Classical period. The painting reinterprets this ancient image in a contemporary way with abstract painterly brushstrokes and flat swaths of bold, abstract colors. This original oil painting is on 16” x 12” archival Arches Oil paper and has a 7/8” white border surrounding the painting.
