Howard Behrens (1933-2014): Table for Two - Capri. Enhanced print on canvas, signed and numbered (103/195) lower right.

Behrens was one of the world's most renowned palette artists, inspired to create his many masterpieces with a palette knife - a tool artists traditionally use to mix oil paints before applying them to canvas with a paint brush. "I kept changing my style," he explains. "I feel like every painting is a prerequisite for the next painting. You come across something that really rings a bell and starts you thinking differently, and you continue on with that new technique, style or subject matter. That's how I eventually got into palette knife painting. It was an evolutionary thing."

30 x 37 inches framed; 20 x 28 inches canvas.

Private collection, Boston.
