Original artwork description:

Painted with the left hand, "Let me tell you something" is an impressive work that speaks volumes about the interior landscape of the artist. A Jungian and intimate view into the psyche of the artist.

The expressive hand gestures of this inner voice which are charged with symbolic meaning are working to create a powerful up-close imaginary portrait. A secondary character is coming into view - almost transparent, almost invisible.

"My intention was to look for what a depiction of an inner voice would look like within my universe..." says Dominic Virtosu, "I've made it a priority to engage this inner voice - I wanted to give it a face."

Suited for a contemporary home that dares to provoke, this very personal and autobiographical work, "Deep Thoughts" is one of the first expressive gestural paintings made by Dominic Virtosu.
