Description:
Produced in cooperation with Natalie Laruccia (Thanks Natalie).
The Louvre, for many centuries the seat of French power, and now the home of art and culture in France, is the perfect setting for a romantic and sensual contemporary Tango painting, though it will probably really be, the Last Tango in Paris...
Painted entirely with a knife. A high level of contrast is provided and the colours made extremely rich, bold and lustrous, thus creating a very contemporary feel overall.
It's a large, very dramatic, passionate, emotive, moody and atmospheric figurative dance painting that would not look out of place as a feature in a lounge, study, office, music room, conservatory, bedroom, hall, landing or similar room and be a focal point to be proud of.
Shown below is a photo of it in a frame for exhibition purposes, though the frame can also be purchased at an additional cost if required. Unfortunately, the picture quality isn't so good due to camera limitations...
Contact myself for more information about this beautiful work of art, or if you would like to purchase it. Obviously, the quality of the original painting and prints is much better than displayed here, though if you wish to make a closer inspection, please let me know of any specific area you're interested in and I'll e mail a higher resolution image to you.
