Unfinished work

© 2006 Armando Salas.--- Pyrography, laminated gold and oil on wood. --- 1982. My first oil. It's a copy of a classic painting. I did it on wood of a broken locker. I wasn't in a happy time (my father died one month before and my mother had a terminal cancer). I didn't achieve the likeness on Madonna's face and the work remain unfinished (hands on the bottom side, parts without gold...) I link this work to my father, to my mother... I'll never finish it.
