Three-Quarters View, Peter Passuntino Painterly Oil on Paper Portrait of a Man, 1960s native craft 5 5/8" x 3 5/8"

5 5/8" x 3 5/8" and in great antique condition

And indeed when they are hung and left to balance and bob and turn in the breeze

I really love the sensibilities this piece brings together: one part Brutalist

The front of the "bell" is painted in blue to resemble the label of a bottle

I'd like to think Glendening painted this himself to relieve some of the stress of the day

Three-Quarters View, Peter Passuntino Painterly Oil on Paper Portrait of a Man, 1960s native craft 5 5/8" x 3 5/8"A couple more works on paper today by Peter Passuntino (b. Chicago, 1936), dating to the 1960s this and a second portrait, which I think may both be self portraits but I'm not entirely sure. (Lots out there about Passuntino, including photos.) I find them both very full of life, and tender too, and this one beautifully, skillfully painted, and better in person. 10" x 10 1 2". Oil, ink, watercolor on heavy paper. Very good condition.
