From the first stroke to delivery

The portrait begins in pencil, then the background with Conversano and Martina Franca, the red jumper and the faces. The finished work, the details, the varnish, the delivery and a rendering with a black frame.

The work in your home

Every work is made to live in a space. Here is an idea of how Gino and Tina can change a room.

The film of the work

Three and a half minutes inside the work

First the pencil drawing and the gold leaf, then the background with the Castle of Conversano and the Arch of Santo Stefano. The scarf and the rose, the red jumper, the faces of Gino and Tina, the hands.

No cuts, no shortcuts: the real time it takes for two people and their places to become a single portrait. It is the most honest way I know to explain what you buy when you commission a work.
