“TERESA” 30”x40” acrylic on canvas.
No filter, this is the color and finish of the painting. This piece is inspired by the extraordinary work of Gian Lorenzo Bernini, Ecstasy of Saint Teresa (1647–1652) Marble, life-size, Cappella Cornaro, Santa Maria della Vittoria, Rome. who also designed the setting of the chapel in marble, stucco and paint. The commission was completed in 1652. and thus I begin a new series in homage to Bernini the leading sculptor of his day, with a very detailed selection of his work in sculpture around Rome. capturing my vision and inspiration from my recent visit to Italy and what I was able to witness and absorb with great admiration Bernini’s masterpiece in person is inexplicable.
