Oil Paintings-Figures

[Show slideshow]

"There is no shortage of painters and art galleries in this part of the country. But few offer artworks you would actually want to hang in a fine home, or that you could actually afford to take home. Joan Damiani's work is unique in both the quality of her fine oil paintings and the reasonableness of her pricing. Her style of painting is most evocative of Hopper. She uses masterful, subtle colors and "lighting" in her works to convey a timeless period of American architecture and life. As with the best of the Impressionists, she includes enough of the details, especially in faces, while being subtly suggestive of background elements that should not pull our focus. We now own one of her larger paintings and will be back for more." Art Siegel
