Faun #2  Diest, early December, 2003, fresco on tile, 40cm  x 40 cm (15 3/4" x 15 3/4") 

Based on pencil studies of the Barberini Faun in Munich's Glyptotek.  Fresco original, with fresco secco retouching.  The plaster is a very tactile, elemental sense impression.  Brush strokes sink quickly into the plaster leaving a soft mist like veil.
