Dina Brodsky
Raven 2, realist gouache on paper miniature bird portrait, 2023

2023

About the Item

We are thrilled to present one of our first works on paper of 2023 by Dina Brodsky - the striking Raven, in her signature tondo format. Like most of her miniature works, the charm expands upon a closer look and the colors and details reveal themselves. The artist explains: “I don’t like painting on white paper, and the tone helps break it in. The warm underpainting helps keep the blacks and greys of the raven from becoming dull and muddy. Because of the complementary colors, a mixture of black-and-white gouache ends up looking blue on top of the red (and when I mix in a bit of actual blue it looks really vibrant. There are only 4 colors in this painting - carmine (red), ultramarine blue, ivory black and titanium white."
