Months ago I saw this painting in a shop-window in Chelsea. I thought it pretty and harmless. This morning I saw it again when I was trashing my Time Out magazines. Gargoyle (Brian) oil on canvas, 30" X 34", 2006 Collection of Bernard Schleifer, NYC Richard Taddei is an artist based in NYC, and he has a website . Browsing the catalogue, I found two paintings I like quite a bit. The first for its abstract power, the second for capturing the look on the youth's face.
